Solutions

S1. Ans. (c)
Sol. Decades ago, China introduced the concept of ‘barefoot doctors’. A concept can be introduced but not enlightened. The rest of the options have present tense verbs (gives, researches, originates). We need a past tense verb, hence introduced.
S2. Ans. (a)
Sol. They were community healthcare workers who successfully improved the health of China’s villages. Health of China’s villages cannot be entrusted, fought, cured or dealt. Improved fits it well.
S3. Ans. (d)
Sol. Latin American countries have started similar programmes. Following the example, other countries started similar programmes. So, the blank cannot take thousands, alike, imitated or naming.
S4. Ans. (e)
Sol. In just over three years, the programme has mobilized over fifty thousand new community health workers. Course would have been succeeded by ‘of’, less by ‘than’, period by ‘of’, approximate would have been approximately. Just makes perfect sense.
S5. Ans. (b)
Sol. The programme has mobilized over fifty thousand new community health workers, each known as ‘Asha’. Referred will be followed by ‘to’, perceived and explains don’t fit well in the context. Called is a close choice, but we aren’t talking about a group. Since we are talking about ‘each member of a group’, known will be the best fit.
S6. Ans. (c)
Sol. This is short -for ‘Accredited Social Health Activist’ and translated into Hindi is the word for hope. ASHA is a word ‘for’ hope. Denotes, explains, means, describes will not fit in the structure of the sentence.
S7. Ans. (d)
Sol. Today technology companies and foundations are also joining the effort to support community health workers. Working to support something cannot be called business or membership. Scope and purpose don’t fit the context well. Here, effort makes complete sense.
S8. Ans. (e)
Sol. Mobile phone companies are empowering these workers with phones. Companies cannot provide, buy, equip (equipping would have still made sense) workers with mobiles. Empowering makes a better sense.
S9. Ans. (a)
Sol. It talks about the years to come. So next cannot be used for multiple years. Past years or previous years don’t make sense as we are talking about the future. Few will not be preceded by ‘the’. So, coming is a perfect fit
S10. Ans. (b)
Sol. In the coming years, ‘community health workers can thus help curb the spread of many devastating but curable diseases. Overlook, protect, enrich, neglect go against the context of the statement. The health workers can help reduce the spread of the disease.
