The Summary Settlement of 1856 was based on which one of the following assumptions?

 

A) The Talukdars were the rightful owners of the land B) The Talukdars were interlopers with no permanent stakes in the land.
C) The Talukdars could evict the peasants from the lands D) The Talukdars would take a portion of the revenue which flowed to the State
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) The Talukdars were interlopers with no permanent stakes in the land.

Explanation:

The British land revenue policy further undermined the position and authority of the taluqdars. After annexation, the first British revenue settlement, known as the Summary Settlement of 1856, was based on the assumption that the taluqdars were interlopers with no permanent stakes in land: they had established their hold over land through force and fraud.

Q:

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


Everyone expected Mary Zophres to win for her retro-revival Technicolor clothes in La La Land — the eventual winner, Colleen Atwood for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, seemed surprised too. But as other awards began to slip away from the well-reviewed musical, a theme could be teased out. What is Fantastic Beasts if not a plea for equal treatment of people, magical or otherwise? Then, Arrival, a film about the inherent benignity of aliens (read immigrants) won for Best Sound Editing. Hacksaw Ridge, which is, in a way, an anti-guns movie, won in two categories. Fences, about an African-American father who fears racial discrimination, took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Earlier, Moonlight, featuring two minority communities (black and gay), won for Best Supporting Actor. This turned out to be one of those years the Oscar voter was underestimated. As a majority of voters are actors, there was the tendency to think they'd reward La La Land, a celebration of creation: the heroine wants to make movies, the hero wants to make jazz. It looked like the year of The Artist all over again.

 

What does the lead female actor in La La Land want to do?

A) Make jazz B) Make movies
C) Make music D) Make magic
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Make movies

Q:

Permanent Hardness of water can be removed by adding

A) Bleaching powder B) Chlorine
C) Wasshing soda D) Potassium permanganate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Wasshing soda

Explanation:

Hardness can be removed by adding sodium carbonate (washing soda) or by passing the water through an ion-exchange column.

 

Hardness in water is caused by dissolved magnesium ions and calcium ions. These can get into the water when it comes into contact with limestone and other rocks that contain calcium compounds. This can happen, for example, when rainwater flows over these rocks on its way to a reservoir.

 

Hardness in water is of two types. They are :

1. Temporary hardness

2. Permanent hardness

 

1. Temporary hardness:: Temporary hardness is caused by dissolved calcium hydrogen carbonate.


2. Permanent hardness:: Permanent hardness is caused by dissolved calcium sulfate. Unlike temporary hardness, it is not removed by boiling the water.

Q:

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.

My coat's pretty warm, even though it cost £9.99 and came from the flea market. It had a label in it, CHRISTIN BIOR, but I cut it out as soon as I got home. You can't work where I work and have CHRISTIN BIOR in your coat. You could have a genuine vintage Christian Dior label. Or something Japanese. Or maybe no label because you make your clothes yourself out of retro fabrics that you source at Alfies Antiques. But not CHRISTIN BIOR.

As I get near Catford Bridge, I start to feel a knot of tension. I really don't want to be late today. My boss has started throwing all sorts of hissy fits about people "swanning in at all times," so I left an extra twenty minutes early, in case it was a bad day. I can already see: It's a god-awful day. They've been having a lot of problems on our line recently and keep cancelling trains with no warning. Trouble is, in London rush hour, you can't just cancel trains. What are all the people who were planning to get on that train supposed to do? Evaporate?

Why is her boss angry?

A) Because he has started suffering from fits. B) Because it is a bad day.
C) Because she was late the day before. D) Because employees are coming late to work.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Because employees are coming late to work.
