Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: To allow a secret to be known, usually without intending to.


Solution : The correct option is the third option.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Openly confess means admitting something openly, not necessarily related to revealing a secret.

The little boy said, "My cat can climb the tree."

Option 1: The little boy said that his cat climbed the tree.

Option 2: The little boy said that his cat had climbed the tree.

Option 3: The little boy said that his cat could climb the tree.

Option 4: The little boy said that his cat can climb the tree.

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: The little boy said that his cat could climb the tree.


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Indirect speech involves converting direct speech (spoken words) into indirect speech (reported words).

Narration Conversion:

  • The reporting verb "said" remains unchanged.
  • The possessive pronoun "my" changes to "his" to reflect the shift from the little boy's perspective to the third person.
  • The verb "can" changes to its past tense form "could" to maintain the proper sequence of tenses in indirect speech.
  • The connector "that" is used to introduce the reported clause.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The little boy said that his cat could climb the tree."

Option 1: 27

Option 2: 90

Option 3: 180

Option 4: 182

Team Careers360 13th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 182


Solution : Given:
A = 1; CAT = 60

Multiply the place value of the letters to get the required code –
Like, the place value of the letter A; A→1
Thus, A is coded as 1.
Place values of the letters of CAT; C→3; A→1; T→20
CAT→3 × 1 × 20 = 60
Thus, CAT is coded as 60.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for MAN; M→13; A→1; N→14
MAN→13 × 1 × 14 = 182

Thus, MAN is coded as 182. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Question : Comprehension:
Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

The world of social media is a strange and wondrous place. It's a world where you can connect with people from all over the globe, share your thoughts and opinions, and maybe even go viral if you're lucky. But let's be real, it's also a world filled with endless cat videos, oversharing, and drama.
One of the most interesting things about social media is the way it's changed the way we communicate. We've gone from long, thoughtful emails to quick, abbreviated messages with emojis and acronyms. And don't even get me started on the whole hashtag phenomenon. It's like we're all speaking a different language now.
But there are also some downsides to this constant connection. It's easy to get sucked into the world of social media and forget about the real world around us. We're so busy scrolling through our feeds that we forget to enjoy the little moments in life. And let's not forget about the pressure to present the perfect life online. It's like we're all in a competition to see who can be the most popular, the most successful, the most enviable.
Despite all of this, I have to admit, I'm still a fan of social media. It's a great way to stay connected with friends and family, and I've even made some new friends through various online communities. Plus, let's face it, sometimes you just need a good laugh at a ridiculous meme.
Question:
What is one of the downsides of social media mentioned in the passage?

Option 1: It can help connect with people all over the globe.

Option 2: It's a great way to stay connected with friends and family.

Option 3: It encourages people to enjoy the little moments in life.

Option 4: It can lead to pressure to present a perfect life online.

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: It can lead to pressure to present a perfect life online.


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation: In the passage, it's mentioned that social media can create pressure to showcase an idealised version of one's life. This leads to a feeling of competition where users may feel compelled to appear more popular, successful, or enviable than others.

Therefore, the right answer is: "It can lead to pressure to present a perfect life online."
