Select the best out of the five answer choices given, to make the passage complete and coherent.<\/p>\n Question 6:\u00a0<\/b>Analysts and industry pundits forecast that the notebook market which has been growing faster than the desktop market for the past three years is expected to overtake the desktop market by the year 2011-12. A fall in prices, large deals from governments and institutions and demand from consumers and sectors such as education are expected to help the notebook numbers. According to research agencies, the year 2010 – 11 saw notebook volumes rise and for the first time, a million-plus notebooks were sold in India in a single quarter. The market has grown nearly four times for notebooks. The demand is driven by all sectors and a very buoyant consumer market, which prefers mobile computers. Entry-level notebook prices have dropped below the Rs. 25,000 mark; this has helped break the ice with new customers. This drop in notebook prices has been helped by the drop in the prices of the building blocks that make a notebook. It’s simple. With notebook volumes growing, the prices of the components are also bound to come down______ ______ .<\/p>\n a)\u00a0All this has resulted in a noticeable change in a number of large government tenders for notebooks; which were traditionally for desktops.<\/p>\n b)\u00a0Because of this the government still prefers desktops to notebooks and has passed tenders for the same.<\/p>\n c)\u00a0Thereby making them more expensive.<\/p>\n d)\u00a0Thus, the forecast for the coming year states that desktops will be the preferred technology choice only for consumers who cannot afford the exorbitantly priced notebooks.<\/p>\n e)\u00a0Thus, notebooks will become obsolete after a decade or so.<\/p>\n Question 7:\u00a0<\/b>Next to China, India is the most populated country in the world. ______. Particularly, rush to technical andhigher education has increased as the scope for arts and science has become lesser and lesser due to lack of reforms and upgradation in the course structure and materials according to the developments of the world. Also, qualification in higher education gives added advantage to face competition successfully in the job market.<\/p>\n a)\u00a0Keeping this in mind, the government has provided concessions in the admission fees for the arts and science streams in the country.<\/p>\n b)\u00a0Naturally, there is too much rush and competition in every field.<\/p>\n c)\u00a0Despite this the rush to higher education is lesser.<\/p>\n d)\u00a0This population increase, though, has not kept pace with the knowledge expansion around the world.<\/p>\n e)\u00a0In the next decade, it will become the most populous.<\/p>\n Question 8:\u00a0<\/b>Research has shown that air pollutants from fossil fuel use make clouds reflect more of the sun’s rays back into space. This leads to an effect known as global dimming whereby less heat and energy reaches the earth. However, it is believed that global dimming caused the droughts in certain parts of the world where millions died, because the northern hemisphere oceans were not warm enough to allow rain formation. Global dimming is also hiding the true power of global warming. By cleaning up global dimming- causing pollutants without tackling greenhouse gas emissions, rapid warming has been observed and various human health and ecological disasters have resulted, as witnessed during the European heat wave in 2003, which saw thousands of people die. ______.<\/p>\n a)\u00a0This, though, does not bring any relief in the problems associated with climate change.<\/p>\n b)\u00a0This phenomenon thus is part of the climate change problem.<\/p>\n c)\u00a0Scientists thus believe that this phenomenon goes hand in hand with global warming.<\/p>\n d)\u00a0At first, it sounds like an ironic saviour to climate change problems.<\/p>\n e)\u00a0The answer to all our problems with respect to climate- change is definitely here.<\/p>\n Question 9:\u00a0<\/b>Women’s rights around the world are an important indicator to understand global well-being. A major global women’s rights treaty was ratified by the majority of the world’s nations a few decades ago. These range from the cultural, political to the economic. For example, women often work more than men, yet are paid less; gender discrimination affects girls and women throughout their lifetime; and women and girls are often the ones that suffer the most poverty. Many may think that women’s rights are only an issue in countries where religion is law. Or even worse, some may think this is no longer an issue at all. But reading the report about the United Nation’s Women’s Treaty and how an increasing number of countries are lodging reservations will show otherwise. Gender equality furthers the cause of child survival and development for all of society, so the importance of women’s rights and gender equality should not be underestimated.<\/p>\n a)\u00a0This treaty tackled and solved a number of issues related to women.<\/p>\n b)\u00a0Why is it then, that women still face a number of problems on the domestic front?<\/p>\n c)\u00a0Thus, the woman today is ten times more empowered as compared to a woman say about a decade ago.<\/p>\n d)\u00a0Women’s activists across nations have implored the respective governments to take! this seriously.<\/p>\n e)\u00a0Yet, despite many successes in empowering women, numerous issues still exist in all areas of life.<\/p>\n Question 10:\u00a0<\/b>Poverty is the state of majority of world’s people and nations. Why is this? ……. Have they been lazy, made poor decisions, and been solely responsible for their own plight? What about their governments? Have they pursued policies that actually harm successful development? Such causes of poverty and inequality are no doubt real. But deeper and more global causes of poverty are often less discussed. Behind the increasing inter-connectedness promised by globalisation are global decisions, policies and practices. These are typically influenced, driven or formulated by the rich and powerful. These can be leaders of rich countries or other global actors such as multinational corporations, institutions and influential people. In the face of such enormous external influence, the governments of poor nations and their people are often powerless. As a result, in the global context, a few get wealthy while the majority struggles.<\/p>\n a)\u00a0Is it enough to blame poor people for their own predicament?<\/p>\n b)\u00a0What is the government doing about it?<\/p>\n c)\u00a0Are the wealthy ones in the nation even aware of this?<\/p>\n d)\u00a0The government has already taken measures to eradicate the same.<\/p>\n e)\u00a0The huge gap between the rich and the poor in the nation is now narrowing.<\/p>\n Take CMAT Mock Tests<\/a><\/p>\n Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n 1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n Except option A statement, all other statements are either gramatically in correct or don’t suit the context of sentence. 2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n Excessive use of chemical fertilizers has reduced nutritive value of soil. 3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n There might be discrimination based on the quality of education received during formative years. In order to eradicate this discrimination, the experts suggested to have a common school system. The sentence starts in such a way that there is bound to be contradiction of the idea in later part of the sentence. 5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n Although used at the start of the sentence sets the premise fot contradiction in later part of sentence. Only statement indicated by option B offers appropriate denial to the set idea in initial part of the sentence. 6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n The passage explains how notebooks are getting more popular and hence option A is the correct choice.<\/p>\n 7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n There is a\u00a0discontinuity between the first and the second lines in the given passage. Option B fills in the gap between those sentences.<\/p>\n 8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n The paragraph talks about how the true effects of global warming would have been on display if global dimming had not been there. So, the best concluding sentence would be option c), which says that scientists believe that global dimming goes hand in hand with global warming.<\/p>\n 9)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(E)<\/strong><\/p>\n We can eliminate options A and C as they are contrary to what is being said in the paragraph. Option B incorrectly identifies the scope of the paragraph. The paragraph speaks of all the injustices women face – not just the one on the domestic front. Between D and E, E correctly completes the chain of thought being expressed at the end of the paragraph. Hence, the correct option is option E.<\/p>\n 10)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n The sentences immediately after the blank uses the pronoun “they”. This is used to refer to poor people. The only option that refers to poor people is option A<\/p>\n

\nOnly statement corresponding to option C puts this in correct perspective and is gramatically correct.
\nHence, the correct option is C.<\/p>\n
\nHence, the correct option is C.
\n4)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n
