The secret of writing good English is not just memorizing the rules of grammar; actually, it lies in developing the habit of unambiguous thinking and precise expression. Matthew Arnold commented, "Have something to say and say it as clearly as possible." Many of the students in Pakistan have no particular style because they have nothing to say. If any unclear idea they have, they express it vaguely. Perspicuity or lucidity is the prime requisite of an impressive writing style. In order to attain lucidity, we should avoid dangling of ideas, vagueness of expression, redundancy of arguments, and use of bombast words.

Q:Which of the following statements is trueabout the main problem of a common student?

Choose an answer

A common student cannot express his ideas

A common student has bulk of ideas to write so he becomes ambiguous in writing

A common student has no clear idea about what to write

A common student faces lack of vocabulary while he writes English

Anthropologists who study orangutans,distant cousins of the human race find in the animals behaviour hints of how our earliest ancestors may have lived.It has long been accepted that primates originally dwelt in the treetops and only migrated to the ground as forests began to dwindle.While to a certain extent,all primates excepts humans spend at least some time dwelling in trees,the orangutan hardly ever ventures to the forest floor.Adult orangutans can grow as heavy as 330 pounds and live for decades,requiring copious amounts of fruit simply to stay alive.Thus,they become very jealous of the territory where they find their food.Compounding this territoriality are the breeding habits of orangutans since females can only breed every few years and,like humans give birth not to litters but single offspring.Consequently,orangutans are solitary,territorial animals who have difficulty foraging in any part of the forest where they were not raised Orangutans take from poachers by customs agents undergo incredible hardship on their return to the wild.Incorrectly relocating a male orangutan is especially problematic,often ending in the animal's death at the hands of a rival who sees not only his territory but also the females of his loosely knit community under threat from an outsider.while humans like chimpanzees are more gregarious and resourceful than orangutans the latter provide anthropologists with useful information about the behaviour of pre hominid primates and how apelike behaviour influenced out ancestors search for the food and family beneath the forest's canopy.iv.THe author of the passage discusses"orangutans taken from poachers" in order to:

Educational planning should aim at meeting the educational needs of the entire population of all age groups. While the traditional structure of education as a three layer hierarchy from the primary stage to the university represents the core, we should not overlook the periphery which is equally important. Under modern conditions, workers need to rewind, or renew their enthusiasm, or strike out in a new direction, or improve their skills as much as any university professor. The retired and the aged have their needs as well. Educational planning, in their words, should take care of the needs of everyone. Our structures of education have been built up on the assumption that there is a terminal point to education. This basic defect has become all the more harmful today. A UNESCO report entitled 'Learning to Be' prepared by Edgar Faure and others in 1973 asserts that the education of children must prepare the future adult for various forms of self-learning. A viable education system of the future should consist of modules with different kinds of functions serving a diversity of constituents. And performance, not the period of study, should be the basis for credentials. The writing is already on the wall. In view of the fact that the significance of a commitment of lifelong learning and lifetime education is being discussed only in recent years even in educationally advanced countries, the possibility of the idea becoming an integral part of educational thinking seems to be a far cry. For, to move in that direction means such more than some simple rearrangement of the present organization of education. But a good beginning can be made by developing Open University programs for older learners of different categories and introducing extension services in the conventional colleges and schools. Also these institutions should learn to cooperate with the numerous community organizations such as libraries, museums, municipal recreational programs, health services etc.

Q:According to the author, what should be the basis for awarding credentials?

In a psychological experiment conducted at South Bay University, groups of men with various levels of education read stories in which people caused harm, some of them doing so intentionally, and some accidentally. When asked about appropriate penalizationfor those who had caused harm, the less educated men, unlike the educated ones, assigned punishments that did not vary according to whether the harm was done intentionally or accidentally. Uneducated men, then, do not regard people's intentions as relevant to penalization.

Q:Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion above?

Choose an answer

In these stories, the severity of the harm produced was clearly stated

In interpreting these stories, the listeners had to draw on a relatively feminine sense of human psychology in order to tell whether harm was produced intentionally or accidentally

Relatively uneducated men are as likely to produce harm unintentionally as are more educated men

The more educated men assigned penalization in a way that closely resembled the way women had assign penalization in a similar experiment

Activity levels of the green iguana vary in cycles that are repeated every 24 hours. It is logical to assume that alteration in the intensity of incident light is the stimulus that controls these daily biological rhythms. But there is much evidence to contradict this hypothesis.

Q:Which of the following, if known, is evidence that contradicts the hypothesis stated above?

Choose an answer

The temperature of the green iguana varies throughout the day, with the maximum occurring in the late afternoon and the minimum in the morning

While some animals, such as the rabbit, are much more active during the day, others, such as moles, show greater activity at night

When animals are transported from one time zone to another, their daily biological rhythms adjust in a matter of days to the periods of sunlight and darkness in the new zone

Even when exposed to constant light intensity around the clock, some iguanas display rates of activity that are much greater during daylight hours than at night.

A poster in an eye clinic advises people, who have received eye drops X that blur vision, refrain from driving until they can do so safely. In a Gov't initiated hospital study, however, subjects questioned immediately after they received such drops and underestimated the time necessary to regain their driving ability. This result indicates that many people with eye drops X will be unlikely to follow the advice.

Q:Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument above?

Choose an answer

Many people, if they know they will receive eye drops X, make arrangements beforehand for a friend or relative to drive them home

The subjects in the hospital study generally rated their abilities more conservatively than they would if they were outside the framework of a scientific experiment

Some people ask their doctors not to give them eye drops X that blur vision if they will have to drive to get home afterward

The subjects in the study were also questioned about the time necessary to regain abilities that do not play an important role in driving safely

A legislator proposes that communities should therefore be required to adopt filtering systems and to reach the target of filtering 50 percent of all tap water within 5 years.

Q:Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the advisability of implementing the proposal?

Choose an answer

Existing filtering systems programs have been private and voluntary, with citizen participation ranging from 25 percent in some communities to 70 percent in others

Existing filtering programs have been restricted to the tap water that is ingested by humans

Existing filtering programs have had recurrent difficulties selling their filtering systems privately usually because the quantities filtered are too smallto be affordable for most families

Some of the materials filtered out of the water are materials that can be used for other purposes

In many hospitals, more and more monitoring is being carried out by automated equipment instead of humanemployees who previously carried out the work. This is done in an attempt to save hospital expenses. However, many employees who lose their jobs to automation will need government assistance to get by, and the same corporations that are laying people off will eventually pay for that assistance through increased taxes and unemployment insurance payments.

Q:Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the author's argument?

Choose an answer

Most of the new jobs created by automated equipment pay less than the jobs that were eliminated by automated equipment did

Many hospitals that have failed to automate have seen their profits decline

Unemployment insurance and taxes are paid also by corporations that are not automating

Many workers who have already lost their jobs to automated equipment have been unable to find new employment
