acting before they do or outshine someone.
22. The first part of the sentence highlights the positive aspect, whereas the latter
part is negative as indicated by 'most undignified diseases'. It implies that some
positive effort has gone into handling something negative. So, the word 'tackling'
best suits here. Moreover, it is about finding a cure to a disease and this process
needs dedication, not devotion or sympathy.
23. We cannot use words like 'disperse', 'vanish', or 'wane' for the sun. So, the
answer is (3). Moreover, 'obscurement' (vagueness) makes option 2 incorrect
24. The keyword is 'trouble'. One generally supports a person in trouble. 'Stand up
for' means 'speak or act in support of'. It fits the context. Option A is correct. 'Stand in
for' means 'to act as a substitute for'. 'Stand out' means 'to be better when
compared'. 'Stand up to' means 'to challenge or confront'. So, all other options do not
fit the context.
25. The sentence is in Simple Past Tense; mark the words 'last election'.
26. The sentence is in Simple Past Tense; mark the verb 'got'. So we will use 'Left' to
fill the blank. Hence, the correct option is (B).
27. Both the prepositions "in" and "with" can be used with "deal". We 'deal in
something' and we 'deal with somebody'. In the first blank, we need to use 'deal in' to
show that the person is involved in buying and selling particular goods as a
business. In the second blank, 'deal with' is used to show that the firm conducts
business with several merchants. We use 'with' for persons. So, option D is the
correct answer.

wife. My wife is the mother of her son.

18.
C is the niece of F. Again C's maternal Grandmother B has only one daughter
married to A. So B is the mother of F and her daughter, who must be E since the
mother of G is not E.
The family tree can be shown as below,
19.
As given, 16th May 2017 = Tuesday
So, in 2016 16th May = Monday as the number of odd day = 1 and in 2015, 16th
May = Monday - 2 = Saturday (as 2016 was a leap year).
Then 16th May to 13th May = 3 days.
Therefore, Saturday - 3 = Wednesday.
Hence, the correct option is (D).

AS per the question, we will draw the following figure to find the direction and
distance from the starting position.
Required distance=AF
=30+15
=45 m
From the above diagram, F is in the East direction from A.
Hence the required answer is 45 m "East".
Hence, the correct option is (D).
25.
First term: 4
Second term: 4 + 3 = 7
Third term: 7 + 5 = 12
Fourth term: 12 + 7 = 19
Fifth term: 19 + 9 = 28
Therefore,
Next Terms: 28 + 11 = 39
Hence, the correct option is (D).

Here, it is a case of arrangement. The logic is the words get arranged in alphabetical
order. Whereas the numbers get arranged in descending order. Numbers occupy
odd places in the final steps while words occupy even positions. When any element
gets arranged, the previous element occupying that position shifts one place towards
right.
38. (c) Here, we have to find out the penultimate step, i.e., second-last step.
Input: when you 22 special 31 16 47 town
Step 1: 47 when you 22 special 31 16 town
40. (d) Here, it is a case of arrangement. Therefore, the previous steps can’t be
obtained with certainty.
43. The Mangalyaan mission may have been the cheapest among all the Mars
missions, but this can't be assumed on the basis of assumption I. The Statement
only mentions that according to Western standards, the Mangalyaan mission is very
cheap, So the Mars missions by western countries were must costlier than
Mangalyaan. Hence, the correct option is (B).
44. (I) It has no relation to the statement that has been given. The statement is
dealing with administrative lapses and callousness. (II) It is a proper follow-up action
to the statement mentioned in the question. Thus, the only correct action among the
two. Hence, the correct option is (D).
45. As the Central Government faced financial loss on accounts of giving rebates on
farming for the last few years, therefore, they declared to finish the rebate on
farming. So, II is the cause while I is the effect. Hence, the correct option is (B).
46. Clearly, a lesser number of people are visiting a place during the weekdays and
more people are visiting during the weekend, both imply events that go together, and
must have happened due to a common cause such as, it being a holiday during the
weekend. Hence, the correct option is (D).
48. Some tools are hummers and all tools are trees.
49. Worksites, schools, homes, and public spaces have been re-engineered in ways
that minimize human movement and muscular activity, as a result, causing the risk
factor for cardiovascular disease and other conditions. So, Statement A is the cause
and Statement B is the effect. Hence, the correct option is (A).
50. The prices of petrol and diesel in the domestic market remain the same in the
last few months. While the price of crude oil has been increased in the international
market this means that these are baked by independent causes. Hence, the correct
option is (D).
51. If certain preventive measures are practiced in the rural and semi-urban areas
the problem will be solved. But if the same is not practiced even in the cities the
problem may roll into the city also, so the two effects are of some common cause.
Hence, the correct option is (D).
52. Copper is cheaper than silver and it is a good conductor of electricity. Hence, the
correct option is (D).

IBM - Daksh will receive calls at the same time from all the four places mentioned,
after a time interval given by the LCM (10,12,20,25) = 300 minutes = 5 hours.
i.e., after an interval of every 5 hours, it receives calls at the same time from all four
places.
Since it received all the calls at the same time at 5: 00 am it will again receive calls
simultaneously from all the four places at 10:00 am, 3: 00 pm, and 8: 00 pm.
Hence, the correct option is (A).
