Logical Reasoning Comprehension based Practice Paper on Drawing InferenceDirections for Q. No. 1 to 10​​ : Read the following passage carefully and then answer the questions in the form of conclusions based on the passage.Mark your answer as :(a) if the inference is definitely true,(b) if the inference is probably true,(c) if the data are inadequate to answer,(d) if the inference is probably false,(e) if the inference is definitely false.Passage I​​ :India and other developing countries, while expressing their commitment to the upgradation of labour​​ standards, have been resisting the move to link international trade, not only with labour standards, but also with environmental concerns and human rights. The move was set afoot on the successful conclusion of the Uruguay Round of trade negotiations with a proposal for the inclusion of a social​​ clause in the World Trade Organisation (WTO), which succeeds GATT. Later on, stiff opposition to the move on the ground that the matter did not fall in the area of trade, a proposal was mooted for the​​ inclusion​​ of a social clause in ILO.1. India has been sidelined on the issue of linking international trade with labour.2. The efforts of linking international trade with labour are being carried out by developed countries.3. All countries appear committed to the cause of upgradation of labour standards.4. The Uruguay Round concluded successfully.5. India claims that environmental issues and trade are uncorrelated.Passage-IIWhat makes good conversation? In the first place, it is essentially a mutual search for the essence of things. It is a zestful transaction, not a briefing or a lecture. Russian poet, Alexander Pushkin correctly identified the willingness to listen as one of the vital ingredients of any exchange. When two people are talking at the same time, it is not conversation; it is collision - nothing is more destructive of good talk than an over-zealous football dribbler playing to the crowd. Pity the husband or wife with a garrulous mate who insists on talking long past the point where he or she has anything to say. To be meaningful, a conversation should head in a general direction. It has been said that if speech is silver, silence is gold. Certainly silence is preferable, under most circumstances, to inconsequential chit-chat.6. The word garrulous means(a) annoying(b) talkative(c) noisy(d) disturbing7. A vital ingredient of conversation is(a) being like an over-zealous footballer(b) being able to speak without stopping(c) the ability to talk(d) the willingness to listen8. A good conversation should not be(a) a lecture(b) a dialogue(c) a discourse(d) a monologue9. If speech is silver, silence is gold - indicates that(a) silence is valuable.(b) silence is more precious than speech.(c) speech is less important.(d) both are valuable.10. According to the Author, "in collision" occurs when(a) two people listen at the same time.(b) two people collide against each other.(c) a single person talks too long.(d) two people talk at the same time.Answer keyAns.1 – e.​​ The inference is definitely false.Ans.2 – c.​​ Data is inadequateAns.3 – d.​​ Inference is probably falseAns.4 – c.​​ Data is inadequate​​ Ans.5 – c.​​ Data is inadequateAns.6 – b.
