Civilization has not succeeded so far, in creating an environment suitable to mental and moral activities of mankind. The low intellectual and spiritual value of most human beings is due largely to deficiencies of their psychological atmosphere. The supremacy of matter and the dogmas of industrial religion have destroyed culture, beauty and morals. The immense spread of newspapers, cheap literature, radios and cinemas has contributed only to the degeneration of culture. Unintelligence is becoming more and more general, in spite of the course given in schools, colleges, and universities. School children and students form their minds on the silly programmes of public entertainments. Social environment instead of favoring the growth of intelligence, opposes it with all its might.
Moral sense is almost complete ignored by modem society. We have in fact, suppressed its manifestation. All are imbued with irresponsibility. Those who discern good and evil, who are industrious, and provident, remain poor and are looked upon as morose. The woman who has several children, who devotes herself to their education instead of to her own career, is considered weak-minded. If a man saves a little money for his wife and the education of his children, this money is stolen from him by enterprising financers or taken by the government and distribute to those who have been reduced to want by their own improvidence and the short-sightedness of manufacturers, bankers and economists. Artists and men of science supply the community with beauty, healthy and wealth. They live and die in poverty. Robbers enjoy prosperity and peace. Gangsters are protected by politicians and respected by judges. They are the heroes whom children admire at the cinema and imitate in their games. A rich man has every right. He may discard his money to him, without losing the consideration of his friends. Sexual morals have been cast aside. Psychoanalysts supervise men and women in their conjugal relations. There is no difference between wrong and right, just and unjust. No one makes any objection to there presence. Ministers have rationalized religion they have destroyed its mystical basis. But they do not succeed in attracting modem men. In their half-empty churched they vainly preach a weak morality, They are content with part of policemen, helping in the interest of the wealthy to preserve the framework of present society. Or, like politicians they flatter the appetites of the crowed.
Men are powerless against such psychological attacks. They necessarily yield to the influence of their group. If one lives in the company of fools or criminals, one becomes a fool or criminal. Isolation is the only hope of salvation. But where will the inhabitants of the new city find solitude? Said Marcus Aurelius 'No retreat is more peaceful or less troubled than that encountered by man is his own soul.' But we are not capable of such an effort. We cannot fight out social surroundings victoriously.

B. they have severed the connection of religion from faith and belief and given it the stamp of reason.

Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow:
Man's growth from barbarism into civilization is supposed to be the theme of history. But sometimes, looking at great stretches of history, it is difficult to believe that this ideal has made such progress or that we are very much civilized or advanced. There is enough of want of co-operation today, of one country or people selfishly attacking or oppressing another, of one man exploiting another.
It is well to remember that man in many ways has not made very great progress from other animals. It may be that in certain ways some animals are superior to him. Still we look down upon the insects as almost the lowest of living things, and yet the tiny bees and ants have learn the art of co-operation and of sacrifice for the good of society are the test of civilization, we may say that the bees and ants are in this respect superior to man. In one of our old Sanskrit books there is a verse which can be translated as follows: "For the family, sacrifice the individual, for the community, the family, for the country, the community, and for the soul, the whole world." What the soul is few of us can know or tell, and each on of us can interpret it in a different way. But the lesson this Sanskrit verse teaches us in the same lesson of co-operation and sacrifice for the larger good. We in India had forgotten this sovereign path to real greatness for a long time, we had so fallen. But gain we seem to have glimpses of it and all the country is astir. How wonderful it is to see men and women, and boys and girls. smilingly going ahead in India's cause without caring about any pain or suffering? Well may they smile and be glad for the joy of serving a great cause which is theirs; and for those who are fortunate, comes the joy of sacrifice also.

Most of the shop-keepers in the town, they supported the striking employees of the market.
A started a business with ₹25,000 and is joined afterwards by B with ₹40,000. After how many months did B join if the profits at the end of the year are divided equally?
Let us assume that B joined for X months and A's tenure = 12 months.
The ratio of their profits for A and B = $$\frac{12\times\ 25000}{X\times\ 40000}$$.
This ratio should be 1:1.
==> $$\frac{12\times\ 25000}{X\times\ 40000}=\frac{1}{1}$$
X = 7.5 months.
So, C joined after 12 - 7.5 = 4.5 months.
Three partners P, Q, R start a business. Twice of P's capital is equal to thrice of Q's capital and Q's capital is four times of R's capital. Out of a total profit of ₹27,500 at the encl of the year, Q's share is:
Let us assume that R's capital is X.
Q's capital will be 4X.
2 * P's Capital = 3 * Q's capital
P's capital = 6X.
The ratio in which they will receive profits ==> 6X : 4X : X
==> 6 : 4 : 1.
Q's share in profits = $$\frac{4}{6+4+1}=\frac{4}{11}$$ of total profits.
==> 10000 Rs.
An amount of ₹10,000 becomes ₹14,641 is 2 years if the interest in compounded half-yearly. What is the rate of compound interest per annum?
Let us assume the rate of interest to be 2R% compounded half yearly.
$$10000\left(1+R\right)^{2\times\ 2}=14641$$
$$\left(1+R\right)^4=1.1^4$$
This gives R = 10% and 2R = 20% rate of interest.
A man bought goods worth Rs. 10,000 and sold half of them at a gain of 10%. At what gain percent must he sell the reminder so as to get a gain of 25% on the whole?
He divided the goods in 2 parts each having a CP of 5000.
SP of 1st part with a gain of 10% = 1.1*5000 = 5500.
Overall SP to gain 25% on the whole = 1.25*10000 = 12500.
SP of the 2nd part = 12500 - 5500 = 7000.
The gain he must have on the 2nd part = $$\frac{7000-5000}{5000}\times\ 1000=40\%$$.
If a shopkeeper sells 1/3 of his goods at a profit of 14%, 3/5 of the goods at a profit of 17.5% and the remaining at a profit of 20%, then his profit on the whole is equal to:
Let us assume that he had 15 items with a CP of 100 each.
The shopkeeper sells 1/3 of his goods at a profit of 14% i.e. 5 items were sold at 114 each.
He sells 3/5 of the goods at a profit of 17.5% i.e. 9 items at 117.5 each.
Remaining items = 1 and it is sold at a profit of 20% i.e. at 120.
Total SP = 5*114 + 9*117.5 + 120 = 1747.5
Total CP = 1500.
Overall profit percentage = $$\frac{1747.5-1500}{1500}\times\ 100=16.5\%$$.
Aman got 76% marks and Neha got 480 marks in a test. The maximum marks of the test is equal to the marks obtained by Aman and Neha together. How many marks did Aman score in the test?
Let us assume that the maximum marks are 100X.
Aman scored 76% i.e. 76X marks.
Sum of marks of Aman and Neha = 76X + 480.
This is equal to 100x.
100X = 76X + 480
X = 20.
So, marks scored by Aman = 76X = 1520.
If the price of rice falls by $$2\frac{1}{2}\%$$, a person can buy 9 kg more of rice for ₹1,260 than before. If the price had risen by $$12\frac{1}{2}\%$$, how much rice would he have bought for the same sum?
₹1,820 are divided among A, B and C. The share of A is $$\frac{2}{5}$$ of the combined share of B and C. Then A gets how much amount?
Let us assume that A's share = 2X.
A's share = $$\frac{2}{5}\left(B\ +\ C\right)$$
B + C share = 5X.
Their total share = 2X + 5X = 7X ==> 1820.
X = 260
So, A' share comes out to be 520 Rs.
The ages of P and Q are presently in the ratio of 5 : 6 respectively. After six years, this ratio will become 6 : 7 respectively. What was Q's age 10 years ago?
Three pipes P, Q and R can fill a tank in 6 hours. After working at it together for 2 hours. R is closed and P and Q can fill the remining part in 7 hours. The number of hours taken by R alone to fill the tank is:
Let us assume the Capacity of the tank = 42 L i.e. the LCM of 6, 7 and 2.
Combined efficiency of P, Q and R = 42/6 = 7 Litres per hour.
In 2 hours, P, Q and R can fill 7*2 = 14 Litres.
The remaining 42 - 14 = 28 litres was filled by P and Q in 7 hours. This gives the combined efficiency of P and Q = 28/7 = 4 litres per hour.
By subtracting the two equations of efficiency, we get that efficiency of Pipe R = 7 - 4 = 3 Litres per hour.
Time taken by Pipe R alone to fill the tank = 42/3 = 14 hours.
P takes twice as much time as Q or thrice as much time as R to finish a piece of work. Working together, they can finish the work in 5 days. Q can do the work alone in:
Let us assume that P takes 6X days to finish the work.
Q takes 6X/2 = 3X days and R takes 6X/3 = 2X days to finish the same work.
Working together, they take 5 days to finish the work.
==> $$\frac{1}{6X}+\frac{1}{3X}+\frac{1}{2X}=\frac{1}{5}$$
==> $$\frac{1+2+3}{6X}=\frac{6}{6X}=\frac{1}{5}$$
==> X = 5.
Q can do the work alone in 3X i.e. 15 days.
Rohan takes 2 hours more than Soham to walk 50 km. but if Rohan doubles his speed, then he can make it in 1 hour less then Soham. How much time does Soham require for walking 50 km?
Let us assume that Soham takes X hrs to walk 50 kms.
Now, Rohan takes X+2 hrs.
If Rohan doubles his speed, he will take half the time for the same distance i.e. $$\frac{X+2}{2}$$ hrs.
This time is 1 hr less than X i.e. time taken by Soham.
$$\frac{X+2}{2}=X-1$$
X+2 = 2X-2
==> X = 4 hrs.
Soham takes 3 hrs to walk 50 kms.
Two trains of equal length are running on parallel tracks in the same direction at 40 km/hr and 30 km/hr. The faster train passes the slower train in 54 seconds. The length of each train is:
Let us assume the length of each train = L metres.
As they both are moving in the same direction, the relative speed = 40 - 30 = 10 km/hr = $$10\times\ \frac{5}{18}=\frac{25}{9}$$ m/sec.
Time taken to completely cross the slower train = $$\frac{L+L}{\frac{25}{9}}$$ = $$\frac{18L}{25}$$.
==> $$\frac{18L}{25}=54$$
This gives L = 75 metres.
The milk and water in two vessels P and Q are in the ratio 5:2 and 2:3 respectively. In what ratio, the liquids in both the vessels be mixed to obtain a new mixture in vessel R containing milk and Half water?
The concentration of milk in vessel P = 5/7and in vessel Q = 2/5.
We need to mix them in such a way so that we get a solution with milk's concentration = 1/2.
Using alligation cross method:
5/7 2/5
1/2
The ratio we get = $$\frac{\frac{1}{2}-\frac{2}{5}}{\frac{5}{7}-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{3}{14}}=\frac{7}{15}$$.
Thus, the ratio in which the solutions are mixed is 7:15.
How many liters of water should be added to a 30 liters mixture of milk and water in the ratio of 7 : 3, such that the resultant mixture has 60% milk in it?
The current quantity of milk = $$\frac{7}{7+3}\times\ 30=21\ L$$.
As the quantity of milk does not change, we need to find the total quantity of solution in which 21 L of milk forms 60%.
60% of Total = 21 L
Total = 35 L.
This means that we added 35 - 30 = 5 L of water to the solution.
The altitude drawn to the base of an isosceles triangle is 8 cm and the perimeter is 32 cm. Find the area of the triangle?
We are given that AD = 8 cm and AB + AC + BC = 32 cm.
AB can be substituted by AC and BC can be written as 2*DC.
This gives, 2AC + 2DC = 32
AC + DC = 16
In triangle ADC:
$$AC^2-DC^2=AD^2$$
$$\left(AC-DC\right)\left(AC+DC\right)=8^2$$
$$\left(AC-DC\right)\left(16\right)=64$$
AC - DC = 4.
From these 2 equations, we get DC = 6 cm and BC = 2*6 = 12 cm.
Area of triangle ABC = $$\frac{1}{2}\times\ BC\times\ AD=\frac{1}{2}\times\ 12\times\ 8=48\ cm^2$$.
A hemispherical bowl of internal radius 9 cm contains a liquid. This liquid is to be filled into cylindrical shaped small bottles of diameter 1 cm and height 4 cm. How many bottles will be needed to empty the bowl?
Volume of liquid in bowl = Volume of semi sphere = $$\frac{2}{3}\pi\ r^3$$=$$\frac{2}{3}\pi\ 9^3$$
Volume of each bottle = $$\pi\ r^2h$$ = $$\pi\ \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^24$$
Let n be the number of bottles needed to fill the liquid.
$$\frac{2}{3}\pi\ 9^3$$ = n*$$\pi\ \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^24$$
n=$$\frac{2}{3}\cdot9\cdot9\cdot9=2\cdot3\cdot9\cdot9=486$$
A hollow hemisphere and a cone have equal bases. If their are also equal, then the ratio of their curved surface area will be:
This is a question from the previous CUET; it is wrong.
The question can be, "A hollow hemisphere and a cone have equal bases. If their heights are also equal, then the ratio of their curved surface area will be:"
If this is the question, then the answer will be as follows:
The curved surface area semi-sphere is $$2\pi\ r^2$$, that of a cone is $$\pi\ r\cdot\sqrt{\ r^2+h^2}$$.
Here r=h
$$\pi\ r\cdot\sqrt{\ r^2+r^2}=\pi\ r\cdot\sqrt{\ 2r^2^{ }}=\sqrt{\ 2}\pi\ r^2$$
$$2\pi\ r^2$$$$:\ \sqrt{\ 2}\pi\ r^2$$=$$\sqrt{\ 2}:1$$
In how many different ways can the letters of the word "TRANSPORT" be arranged the vowels always come together?
In the word TRANSPORT, AO are the only vowels and remaining letters are TTRRNSP.
We will make 1 bundle of AO and will have 1 + 7 = 8 letters to arrange with 2Ts and 2Rs.
They can be arranged in $$\frac{8!}{2!\times\ 2!}$$ ways and the letters of the bundle can also be arranged in 2! ways which gives a total of $$\frac{8!}{2!\times\ 2!}\times\ 2!=\frac{8!}{2!}=20160$$.
In how many ways can a group of 5 men and 2 women be made out of a total of 7 men and 3 women?
5 men can be selected out of 7 in 7C5 ways and,
2 women can be selected out of 3 come in 3C2 ways.
Total ways to select 5 men and 2 women out of 7 men men and 3 women are 7C5 * 3C2 = 21 * 3 = 63 ways.
In a simultaneous throw of a pair of dice, find the probability of getting a total more than 8?
We will have to count the cases where the sum of numbers rolled is greater than 8.
Sum is 9 ==> (3,6) (4,5) (5,4) (6,3)
Sum is 10 ==> (4,6) (5,5) (6,4)
Sum is 11 ==> (5,6) (6,5)
Sum is 12 ==> (6,6)
Total cases possible with sum greater than 8 = 10.
Total rolls possible = 36.
Probability of getting a sum greater than 8 = $$\frac{10}{36}=\frac{5}{18}$$
A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The probability of getting a queen of club or a king of heart is:
Probability of getting a Queen of Club or a King of Hearts = $$\frac{2}{52}=\frac{1}{26}$$.
If $$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{4}{5}$$ and $$\frac{b}{c} = \frac{15}{16}$$, then $$\frac{c^{2} - a^{2}}{c^{2} + a^{2}}$$ is:
$$a\ =\ \frac{4b}{5}$$
$$c=\frac{16b}{15}$$
Substituting these values in $$\frac{c^{2} - a^{2}}{c^{2} + a^{2}}$$
==> $$\frac{\left(\frac{16b}{15}\right)^2-\left(\frac{4b}{5}\right)^2}{\left(\frac{16b}{15}\right)^2+\left(\frac{4b}{5}\right)^2}=\frac{\frac{256}{225}-\frac{16}{25}}{\frac{256}{225}+\frac{16}{25}}=\frac{112}{400}=\frac{7}{25}$$.
If $$a + \frac{1}{b} = 1$$ and $$b + \frac{1}{c} = 1$$, then what is the value of abc?
$$a + \frac{1}{b} = 1$$
ab + 1 = b
$$b + \frac{1}{c} = 1$$
bc + 1 = c
Putting value of b, we get:
(ab + 1)c + 1 = c ==> abc + c + 1 = c
This gives value of abc = -1.
If $$2x + \frac{1}{3x} = 6$$, then $$3x + \frac{1}{2x}$$ is equal to:
$$2x + \frac{1}{3x} = 6$$
Multiply both sides with $$\frac{3}{2}$$ to get:
$$\frac{3}{2}\left(2x+\frac{1}{3x}\right)\ =\ \frac{3}{2}\times\ 6$$
$$3x+\frac{1}{2x}=9$$.
If a + b + c = 0, then the value of $$\frac{a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2}}{a^{2} - bc}$$ is:
$$a+b+c=0$$
$$a\ =\ -b-c$$
Squaring both sides:
$$a^2=b^2+c^2+2bc$$.
Adding $$b^2+c^2$$ on both sides, we get:
$$a^2+b^2+c^2=2\left(b^2+c^2+bc\right)$$.
Substituting values of $$a^2+b^2+c^2\ and\ a^2$$ in the given expression, we get:
$$\frac{2\left(b^2+c^2+bc\right)}{b^2+c^2+2bc-bc}=2$$.
If the area of the circle in the figure is $$36\pi$$ $$cm^{2}$$ and ABCD is a square, then the area of $$\triangle$$ ACD, in $$cm^{2}$$, is:
Area of circle = $$36\pi\ $$
==> $$\pi r^2=36\pi\ \ $$
This gives radius of circle = 6 cm.
Diagonal of the square = Diameter of the circle.
$$S\sqrt{\ 2}=12$$
S = $$6\sqrt{\ 2}$$cm.
Area of triangle ACD = half of the area of square = $$\frac{1}{2}\left(6\sqrt{\ 2}\right)^2=36$$ sq. cm.
A piece of wire 78 cm long is bent in the form of an isosceles triangle. If the ratio of one of the equal sides to the base 5 : 3, then what is the length of the base?
Let us assume the length of the sides of the isosceles triangle be 5x, 5x and 3x cm.
The perimeter of the triangle = 78 cm
==> 5x + 5x + 3x = 13x = 78 cm.
This gives x = 6 cm and length of the base i.e. 3x to be 18 cm.
A sum of money at simple interest amounts to ₹815 in 3 years and to ₹854 in 4 years. The sum is:
Interest incurred in 1 year = 854 - 815 = 39 Rs.
Interest incurred over 3 years = 3 * 39 = 117 Rs.
Amount = Principal + Interest
815 = Principal + 117
Principal = 698 Rs.
The average of six numbers is m and the arrange of three of these is y. If the average of the remining three is Z, then:
Sum of observations = Average * Number of observations.
Sum of all 6 numbers = 6m
Sum of 3 numbers = 3y and Sum of the remaining 3 numbers = 3Z.
equating the sum of all 6 numbers,
6m = 3y + 3Z
==> 2m = y + Z.
The average of five consecutive numbers is m. If the next two numbers are also included, how shall the average vary?
The average of five numbers m-2,m-1,m,m+1,m+2 is m. When, the next two numbers are added the numbers are m-2,m-1,m,m+1,m+2,m+3,m+4 the average is (7m+7)/7=m+1.
So, I shall increase by 1.
There is an error in the options, even in the official exam. We can't resolve it.
In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 3.2. What should be the run rate in the remaining 40 overs to reach the target of 282 runs?
The number of runs scored in the first 10 overs is 32. The total total required runs is 282.
So the remaining runs to be scored in 40 overs is 282. So the required run rate is 250/40=6.25.
If 5 workers can collect 60 kg wheat in 3 days, how many kilograms of what will 8 workers collect in 5 days?
We know that $$\frac{Men\times\ Days\times\ Hours}{Work}$$ remain constant.
So, if we assume that the wheat collected by 8 men will be X kgs then,
$$\frac{5\times\ 3}{60}=\frac{8\times\ 5}{X}$$
X = 160 kgs.
The cost of 8 Pens and 14 fans is ₹500. What is the cost of 12 pens and 21 fans?
8P + 14F = 500
dividing the equation by 2,
4P + 7F = 250
Multiplying by 3,
12P + 21F = 750
So, the cost of 12 pens and 21 fans = 750 Rs.
If $$x^{y} = y^{x}$$, then $$\left(\frac{x}{y}\right)^{\frac{x}{y}}$$
$$x^y=y^x$$
We shift the power y from LHS to RHS
==> $$x\ =\ y^{\frac{x}{y}}$$.
No we substitute the value of $$y^{\frac{x}{y}}$$ in $$\left(\ \frac{x}{y}\right)^{\frac{x}{y}}$$, we get:
$$\frac{x^{\frac{x}{y}}}{x}=x^{\frac{x}{y}-1}$$.

In the series 2, 15, 4, 12, 6, 7, ?, ?, what are the next two terms?
The alternate terms form 2 different patterns.
Terms at odd positions are multiples of 2 ==> 2, 4, 6. So, the next term will be 8.
Terms at even positions have an increasing difference ==> 15 - 12 = 3; 12 - 7 = 5.
So, the next difference should be 7 and the next term will be 7 - 7 = 0.
The next 2 terms of the whole series = 8,0
