Night Class: English Quiz for IBPS/BOM Exam |_2.1
Directions (1-5): Rearrange the following five sentences
(A), (B), (C), (D) and (E) in the proper sequence to form a meaningful paragraph
and then answer the questions given below.

(A) Beggar-my-neighbor, in economics, is a
trade policy of competitive devaluation, where countries devalue their exchange
rates in rapid succession in order to make export prices more competitive.

(B) This was
prevalent in the 1930s. It is harder to achieve under floating rates, though
the Japanese are often accused of trying to keep the yen artificially low to
encourage their exports.
(C) Although
beggar-my-neighbor policies work for a short time, to boost the domestic
economy, there are several detrimental results –(1) the protected industry is
inefficient, so consumers have to pay higher prices; (2) trading partners are
forced to retaliate with their own protectionist policies; and (3) they earn
less foreign exchange, so buy less of the first country’s exports.
(D) In
effect, everyone is beggared.
(E) This
happened in the 1920s and 1930s but was partly outlawed by GATT (the General
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) after 1947. The slow-growing 1970s and 1980s
and early 1990s have rekindled beggar-my-neighbor instincts.

(A), (B), (C), (D) and (E) in the proper sequence to form a meaningful
paragraph and then answer the questions given below.
(A)
Intellectualism set out, it is true, to discover by reflection, the structure
of perception, instead of explaining it in terms of a combination of
associative forces and attention, but its gaze upon perception is not yet
direct.
(B)
Sensation is no longer presupposed as a real element of consciousness.
(C) This
will be seen better by examining the role played in its analysis by the
notation of judgement.
(D)
Judgement is often introduced as what sensation lacks to make perception
possible.
(E) But when
it is desired to delineate the structure of perception, it is done by joining
up the points of sensation.

Directions (11-15): Rearrange the following Six sentences
(A), (B), (C), (D),(E) and (F) in the proper sequence to form a meaningful
paragraph and then answer the questions given below.
(A) In its
descriptions of the body from the point of view of the self, classical
psychology was already wont to attribute to it ‘characteristics’ incompatible
with the status of an object.
(B) In the
first place, it was stated that my body is distinguishable from the table or
the lamp in that I can turn away from the latter whereas my body constantly
perceived.
(C) It is
not the case that ever-renewed perspectives simply provide it with
opportunities of displaying its permanence, and with contingent ways of
presenting itself to us.
(D) It is
therefore an object which does not leave me. But in that case, is it still an
object? If the object is an invariable structure, it is not one in spite of the
changes of perspective, but in that change or through it.
(E) It is an
object, which means that it is standing in front of us, only because it is
observable, situated, that is to say, directly under our hand or gaze,
indivisibly overthrown and re-integrated with every movement they make.
(F) Otherwise,
it would be true like an idea and not present like a thing.
