Question 1 |
Directions: Study the passages below and answer the questions that follow each passage. PASSAGE-I Having investigated the nature of the relationship between price and trading volume for 50 Indian stocks, our findings indicate evidence of positive contemporaneous correlation between price changes and trading volume in Indian stock markets. All the stocks, except Reliance Power, show asymmetric behaviour, which is in line with the research findings. Investigation of dynamic relationship between returns and trading volume shows very interesting results. We find evidence that in the Indian market, past returns cause trading volume, which can be easily conceived in an emerging market where the state of development of the market possibly does not allow instantaneous information dissemination. These results are further supported by the variance decomposition. However, in most cases the relationship lacks economic significance even though it is statistically significant. The results of impulse response analysis indicate that both returns and volume are mostly affected by their own lag and that volume is more autoregressive than returns, that is, any shock in either returns or volume does not affect the return series beyond one lag. In case of unconditional volatility and trading volume, we find a positive contemporaneous relationship between trading volume and unconditional volatility. According to the passage, the research findings show 1. positive contemporaneous relationship between trading volume and volatility 2. Reliance Power confirms the general trend 3. information is not disseminated instantaneously in the stock market
1, 2 and 3 | |
1 and 3 | |
1 and 2 | |
2 and 3 |
Question 2 |
It can be inferred from the passage that
the trading volume does not depend on the past returns | |
the trading volume largely depends on the past returns | |
the trading volume has no positive correlation with volatility | |
the trading volume depends on the variance decomposition |
Question 3 |
According to the passage, subjects that are discussed do not include
trends in returns vis-à-vis volatility | |
stock market losses during recession | |
information dissemination being slow within the market | |
results of the research have more of statistical significance than economic |
Question 4 |
According to the passage, which one of the following inferences is false?
Any shock in either returns or volume affects the return series beyond one lag | |
In case of unconditional volatility and trading volume, there exists a positive contemporaneous relationship between trading volume and unconditional volatility | |
Both returns and volume are mostly affected by their own lag | |
The state of development of the market possibly does not allow instantaneous information dissemination |
Question 5 |
PASSAGE – II There’s an old journalistic axiom that bad news sells. That is reflected every day on our television screens and newspaper headlines. From the lingering impact of the global economic meltdown to acts of terrorism, new pandemics and lately, natural disasters, the bad news seems unending. Yet, in every depressing story there is always a silver lining, an act of courage, independence and enterprise that shows the resilience of the human spirit. Nothing faces more daunting odds than the crucial area of infrastructure. India is the fifth-largest producer of electricity in the world. It has the second-largest road network in the world. The second-largest rail network under a single management, and a civil aviation market that will touch 100 million passengers by next year. It also has the third-largest number of telephone subscribers the world over. Yet the Indian infrastructure story is usually one of shortages, blockages and leakages. Whether it is energy or urban infrastructure, roads or ports, India has unfortunately rarely been known for its efficiency. There have been a few shining examples that have been written about but there are others lesser known but equally important for the role they have played in the infrastructure arena. There are challenges, of course, and we have picked an array of experts to address them. Infrastructure, as everyone knows, will be the key challenge for India’s growth story and John F. Kennedy’s famous words come to mind: ‘American roads are not good because America is rich, but America is rich because American roads are good’. Hopefully, the same will happen in India too. As per the passage,
infrastructure is not all that relevant for development of a country | |
India does not have the required know how to build up the infrastructure | |
infrastructure is relevant for development | |
infrastructure is most essential for development |
Question 6 |
In the field of infrastructure, India
has shown remarkable progress | |
is not doing satisfactorily | |
has shown adequate progress | |
does not have experts to deal with various problems |
Question 7 |
According to the passage,
people love to read good news | |
people do not prefer good news | |
bad news generally spreads fast | |
no one wants to hear bad news |
Question 8 |
As per the passage, India
is capable of dealing with problems of building required infrastructure | |
may not be able to build its infrastructure | |
is well known for its efficiency in dealing with problems of infrastructure | |
will continue to struggle in dealing with problems of building the required infrastructure |
Question 9 |
PASSAGE – II Power and possession have been central pursuits of modern civilization for a long time. They blocked out or distorted other features of the western renaissance (revival) which promised so much for humanity. But people have been and are still being taught to prize are money, success, control over the lives of others, acquisition of more and more objects. Modern social, political, and economic systems, whether capitalist, fascist or communist, reject in their working the basic principle that the free and creative unfoldment of every man, woman and child is the true measure of the worth of any society. Such infoldment requires understanding and imagination, integrity and compassion, co-operation among people and harmony between the human species and the rest of nature. Acquisitiveness and the pursuit of power have made the modern man an aggressor against everything that is non-human, an exploiter and oppressor of those who are poor, meek and unorganized, a pathological type which hates and distrusts the world and suffers from both acute loneliness and false pride. The need for a new renaissance is deeply felt by those sensitive and conscientious men and women who not only perceive the dimensions of the crisis of our but who also realize that only through conscious and cooperative human effort may this crisis be met and probably even overcome. The author appears to be advocating which of the following approaches to be adopted by the society?
Capitalistic | |
Communist | |
Humanistic | |
Authoritarian |
Question 10 |
Which of the following best describes the behaviour of modern man?
Imaginative and sympathetic | |
Cruel and greedy | |
Conscientious and cooperative | |
Perceptive and creative |
Question 11 |
The author hopes that the present crisis can be solved by
devoted individual efforts | |
different political systems | |
collective human efforts | |
spiritually developed individuals |
Question 12 |
Which of the following is most opposite in meaning to the word ‘central’ as used in the passage?
Lateral | |
Inadequate | |
Peripheral | |
Major |
Question 13 |
PASSAGE – IV The history of literature really began long before man learned to write. Dancing was the earliest of the arts. Man danced for joy round his primitive camp fire after the defeat and slaughter of his enemy. He yelled and shouted as he danced and gradually the yells and shouts became coherent and caught the measure of the dance and thus the first war song was sung. As the idea of God, developed prayers were framed. The songs and prayers became traditional and were repeated from one generation to another, each generation adding something of its own. As man slowly grew more civilized, he was compelled to invent some method of writing by three urgent necessities. There were certain things that it was dangerous to forget and which, therefore, had to be recorded. It was often necessary to communicate with persons who were some distance away and it was necessary to protect one’s property by making tools, cattle and so on, in some distinctive manner. So man taught himself to write and having learned to write purely for utilitarian reasons he used this new method for preserving his war songs and his prayers. Of course, among these ancient people, there were only a very few individuals who learned to write, and only a few could read what was written. As for the war songs and prayers, each generation
added something of its own to the stock | |
blindly repeated the songs and prayers | |
composed its own songs and prayers | |
repeated what has handed down to it |
Question 14 |
The first war-song
was inspired by God | |
developed spontaneously | |
was a song traditionally handed down | |
was composed by leading dancers |
Question 15 |
The war song evolved out of
creative inspiration | |
literature | |
artistic urge | |
yelling and shouting |
Question 16 |
Man invented writing because he wanted to
be artistic | |
write war song | |
write literature | |
record and communicate |
Question 17 |
PASSAGE – V Economists, ethicists and business sages persuade us that honesty is the best policy, but their evidence is weak. We hoped to find data that would support their theories and thus, perhaps encourage higher standards of business behaviour. To our surprise, our pet theories failed to stand up. Treachery, we found, can pay. There is no compelling economic reason to tell the truth or keep one’s word punishment for the treacherous in the real world is neither swift nor sure. Honesty is, in fact, primarily a moral choice. Business people do tell themselves that, in the long run, they will do well by doing good. But there is little factual or logical basis for this conviction. Without values, without a basic preference for right over wrong, trust based on such self-delusion would crumble in the face of temptation. Most of us choose virtue because we want to believe in ourselves and have others’ respect and belief in us. And for this, we should be happy. We can be proud of a system in which people are honest because they want to be, not because they have to be. Materially, too, trust based on morality provides great advantages. It allows us to join in great and exciting enterprises that we could never undertake if we relied on economic incentives alone. Economists tell us that trust is enforced in the market place through retaliation of reputation. If you violate a trust, your victim is apt to seek revenge and others are likely to stop doing business with you, at least under favourable terms. A man or woman with a reputation for fair dealing will prosper. Therefore, profit maximizers are honest. This sounds plausible enough until you look for concrete examples. Cases that apparently demonstrate the awful consequences of trust turn out to be few and weak, while evidence that treachery can pay seems compelling. What did the author find out about the theory that honestly is the best policy?
It is a useless theory | |
It is correct on many occasions | |
It is correct for all businessmen | |
It is correct only occasionally |
Question 18 |
What do economists and ethicists want us to believe?
Businessmen are honest only at times | |
Businessmen should be honest at all times | |

Question 19 |
Which of the following is false according to the passage?
People are generally honest because it pays in the long run | |
Virtuous behaviour earns the self respect of others | |
Economists believe that all businessmen are dishonest | |
Generally people are honest to earn self-respect |
Question 20 |
Why do businessmen, according to economists, remain honest, because dishonest businessmen
are flogged in the market place | |
are always prosecuted | |
can make more money | |
cannot stay in business for long |

Unlike the top universities in the US, Britain and in other developed nations, most Indian universities continue to thrust a mandatory course structure down the throats of students, giving them little opportunity to figure out where their real interests and abilities lie. At present, if a student wants to change her stream, she will have to drop a year and apply afresh. In the new scheme of things, multiple exit points will allow students to leave the course after three years and come back later to continue it. The new four-year programme will align with international degree programmes, making it easier for students to apply abroad for post-graduate (PG) courses. Only India’s professional education schools that teach engineering, architecture, law and medicine have internationally aligned course structures. At present, humanities and science student can’t go to the US to study after they finish a their three-year UG programmes because they fall short of the requirement of 16 years (10+2+4) of formal education that American varsities want. Earlier in the year, DU launched meta-university, which gives student from one varsity the chance to study in another varsity. These two reforms-coupled with the shift to a semester system – indicate that administrators and policy-makers are now willing to move forward. That DU is at the forefront of these reforms is a welcome sign because it is the country’s largest university (in terms of numbers of full-time students) and has historically shown the way to India’s higher education system. But such changes can be introduced and sustained only with the support of all stakeholders. As the fracas between the last DU vice-chancellor and his faculty over the semester system showed, the absence of discussions with teachers, students and independent academicians can make the reform process painful. The new four-year programme will align with international degree programme.

Question 95 |
PASSAGE – II Over half of the total number of malls in the Delhi-National Capital Region (NCR) are vacant due to reasons like economic and lack of robust revenue generation model, according to a survey conducted by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham). The total rate of vacancy in malls in Delhi NCR is 55% while in Mumbai it is 52% followed by Ahmedabad-51%, Chennai-50%, Hyderabad-48% and Bangaluru-45%. The survey further said that construction of several malls have significantly been delayed and withdrawn due to lukewarm response from retailers. Vacancy levels are due to poor location, poor design and poor parking facilities while some are operating at 60% occupancy. The industry is also facing problems like multiple taxes, lack of clarity in policies and shortage of experts in areas such as supply chain and store management. Biggest shopping mall can feel like a pretty lonely place. Majority of retailers said that they are holding back on new store openings and focusing on existing stores. The sharpest decline in mall rental values are also recorded high in Delhi-NCR followed by Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangaluru, Kolkata and Pune. Most of the shop owners, who participated in the survey said that increasing rents will not work because at the end of the day, it has to be affordable for retailers to do business. There are about 1,200 shopping malls in the country. Due to high rent and lack of proper infrastructure for luxury retailing, many international brands are opting for online retailing. The designing of malls is poor.

Question 100 |
Directions (Qs. 100-102): Read the following situation to answer these questions. SITUATION Urban areas in India are extremely dirty and the conditions are deteriorating day by day. Big heaps and mounds of piled garbage can be seen not only around slums, but also around busy market places, where transactions in millions take place. Public health is the immediate sufferer and during the spread of any epidemic, lives of people are at the risk. The problems can be overcome by adopting an alternate method of New Public Management (NPM). According to a survey, a traditional bureau chief carries out garbage at present with battalions of sweepers and fleets of trucks. So, much of time is spent in handling inputs to the workers. NPM is the new technique of extension of market principles to public administration. It includes giving contracts of services to the private sectors, which could include cooperatives of former municipal employees. By this method, the bureau chief can supervise the output of his bureau, instead of focusing on inputs. This is the need of the hour as we need clean towns to ensure hygienic atmosphere. What would the former employees of municipal corporations do, if New public Management is implemented?
Supervise the outputs of the bureau | |
Become jobless as the contracts will be in the hands of private sector and hence they will form unions and go on strikes | |
Form co-operatives and start delivering the same services they have been rendering | |
Be paid more due to increase in efficiency and adaptability |
Question 101 |
What can be inferred from the given situation?
Poverty is also responsible for epidemics break through | |
Dirty surroundings not always reflect poverty | |
Lives of the poor people are at a greater risk | |
Poverty is an indication of dirty surroundings |
Question 102 |
What is the advantage of New Public Management over traditional system?
The bureau chief can devote more time and attention to the result of the work undertaken | |
The New Public Management is more efficient and economical than the traditional system | |
The new Public Management will ensure cleaner cities and towns | |
None of these |
Question 103 |
Directions (Qs. 103-106): A business situation is given below followed by four possible conclusions which can be drawn from the facts stated in the situation. You have to examine each conclusion separately in the context of the situation and decide upon its degree of truth or falsity. Mark answer as A. if conclusion is definitely true B. if conclusion is probably true C. if information given in passage is inadequate to provide the answer D. if conclusion is definitely false ‘Indian rice exporters might face tough competition in the International market’, allege the exporters. International demand for Indian rice surfaced, either due to its low prices or due to the crop failure in other competitive countries. However, our competitors are having a good crop of rice this year and which indeed sounds as a threat for India, they pointed out. The leading producing countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, USA and Pakistan are bringing down their prices at par with Indian prices. Internationally, these countries have reduced price by $ 50 per tonne in lower grades, coming almost at par with Indian prices. Indian rice currently quoting price between $ 260 and $ 265 per tonne. However, in high grade the difference still remains high. Therefore, India can expect to be competitive in high grades provided the quality and deliveries are ensured in time. Pakistan is our main competitor and it has reduced its price by 15 per cent coming almost in line with the Indian prices. The very fact that international producers have started to reduce their price is a signal for Indian exporters to gear up for 2013-14. Indian rice exporters have no potential threat in the International market for exporting rice.
