Test of the Day for IBPS RRB Exam 2017 |_5.1

Directions (16-20): In the following paragraph questions, four sentences have been given, out of these four sentences one sentence is out of the context of the paragraph. Find out the Irrelevant Sentences and mark it as your correct answer. 


 Q16. (1) It has become something of a cliché to predict that Asia will dominate the twenty-first century. 
(2) It is a safe prediction, given that Asia is already home to nearly 60% of the world’s population and accounts for roughly 25% of global economic output.
(3) Asia is also the region where many of this century’s most influential countries – including China, India, Japan, Russia, South Korea, Indonesia, and the United States – interact. 
(4) These developments both reflect and reinforce heightened nationalism throughout the region.

1
2
3
4
All sentences are relevant.
Solution:

First, option (d) is unspecific in the region it speaks of. Second, it brings up nationalism which has no continuity with the rest of the sentences’ ideas. Thus, it is the irrelevant sentence.

Q17. (1) This indicates a deep lack of concern for citizens on the part of the administrators. 
(2) Before this year will have ended, the French parliament will have enacted a comprehensive pension overhaul, which is essential not only to putting France’s public finances on a sound and sustainable footing, but also to shoring up confidence in the Eurozone in 2014 and beyond. 
(3) This effort has gained broad public acceptance because it was fair: both retirees and working people will contribute, as will companies and households. 
(4) For the first time, pension reform has been carried out in France in continuous consultation with employers’ associations and trade unions.

1
2
3
4
All sentences are relevant.
Solution:

Option (a) directly contrasts what has been said in the other options, which is appreciative and laudatory of the French parliament’s efforts at implementing a comprehensive pension overhaul. Thus, it is irrelevant in the given context.

Q18. (1) The concept of “sustainable harmony” can be promoted by publishing indices of personal well-being and environmental preservation, alongside standard GDP data. 
(2) The desire to help others without consideration for ourselves is not just a noble ideal. 
(3) Selflessness raises the quality and elevates the meaning of our lives, and that of our descendants; in fact, our very survival may even depend on it. 
(4) Studies have shown that individuals and societies can learn to be more altruistic.

1
2
3
4
All sentences are relevant.
Solution:

While option (a) does seem connected to the rest of the sentences, it is still the most irrelevant from among the options present. It is an extension of the concept of altruism in discussion in the question, in that it discusses ‘sustainable harmony’. Options (b), (c) and (d) hover around the same premise and thus constitute a consistent thought.

Q19. (1) The problem with charities is that they have little incentive to become more efficient. 
(2) Yet the real value is in training people to deliver for themselves, at a local scale – empowered rather than controlled, creative rather than rehearsed, and working by choice rather than in desperation. 
(3) There is no simple way to monitor the quality and efficiency of a charity – especially one devoted to long-term changes (that is, investments) rather than daily delivery of services. 
(4) Since starting my own non-profit organization, I look at other nonprofits with new eyes.

1
2
3
4
All sentences are relevant.4
Solution:

Option (b) is the answer because it diverges into a different direction from the one author takes in the other three sentences in his/her assessment of charities. It does not express an idea similar to these other sentences. It is thus the irrelevant sentence.

Q20. (1) Nowadays, many people seem to be more relaxed than ever about nationality, with the Internet enabling them to forge close connections with distant cultures and people. 
(2) But states remain extremely sensitive about their borders’ inviolability. 
(3) A great game is beginning among Asia’s great powers, and there are scant rules in place to manage how it will be played. 
(4) After all, territory – including land, oceans, air space, rivers, and seabeds – is central to a country’s identity, and shapes its security and foreign policy.

1
2
3
4
All sentences are relevant.
Solution:

Option (a), (b) and (d) talk of interconnectedness and territorial concerns of countries across the world, in a broad way. There is no specific mention of any particular region or country. The mention of Asia’s power games and focus on it is what makes option C the irrelevant sentence.
