India’s baffling array of state and national labor laws date to the 1940s: one provides for the type and number of spittoons in a factory. Another says an enterprise with more than 100 workers needs government permission to scale back or close. Many Indian businesses stay small in order to remain beyond the reach of the laws. Big firms use temporary workers to avoid them. Less than 15% of Indian workers have legal job security. The new government can sidestep the difficult politics of curbing privileges by establishing a new, simpler labor contract that gives basic protection to workers but makes lay-offs less costly to firms. It would apply only to new hires; the small proportion of existing workers with gold-star protections would keep them.
Which of the following options best summarizes the main idea of the paragraph?
More Indian workers can get permanent jobs and legal job security if existing labor laws are reformed.
Effective labor law reform can encourage many Indian businesses to grow to more than 100 workers.
Outdated Indian labor laws need to be simplified to provide basic protection to workers and curb privileges.
The difficult politics of curbing privileges can be avoided if the changes in the labor law only apply to the new hires.
A study published in 2006 by Friedrich Schneider on the world’s shadow economies dealt briefly with the “tax morality” of Germans. According to the study, two-thirds of the Germans surveyed regarded tax evasion as a “trivial offence,” while only one-third judged stealing a newspaper this way. Indian tax morality is similar, but it makes a distinction between expatriate illicit money, which is viewed as a serious crime perpetrated by the very corrupt, and money held within India, which is perceived as a practical measure.
Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the above?
(i) Two-thirds of the Germans evade tax and consider it only a trivial offence.
(ii) Stealing a newspaper is a bigger crime in Germany than tax evasion.
(iii) As long as the money is held in India, illicit money is accepted as practical by Indians.
(iv) Indians regard tax evasion, especially holding illicit money abroad, as a serious crime.
Many scientific studies have found links between genius and mental illness, particularly bipolar disorder in which patients have violent mood swings between elation and depression. In one interesting Swedish study, 700,000 Swedes had intelligence tests at age 16 and again 10 years later. Those who scored well were four times more likely than the others to have developed bipolar disorder. The US neurologist James Fallon came up with a convincing argument based on his own findings in the field: the brain area involved in mood swings is the same area where creativity is born. This may explain why some people can draw previously unseen connections among ideas, images, shapes and the like.
Which of the following is inferred from the above?
Those with bipolar disorder are likely to be highly intelligent.
Most people who excel in creativity are likely suffering from a mental problem.
Often there is a correlation between mental illness and genius.
Mental disorders give birth to genius.
In an attempt to encourage “livelier” writing, some teachers want children to stop using words like ‘said’, which doesn’t have any emotion. The assumption here is that emotion is a desirable quality in every word of a sentence, and that a rich word is always more appropriate than a plain one. You don’t have to invoke Hemingway, who made a fetish of plain words, to recognize that successful writing modulates the lavishness of its diction for effect, rather than cranking the dial all the way to maximum floridity and leaving it there.
What is the main idea of this paragraph?
Successful writers use only plain, unemotional words.
Emotion is not a desirable quality in every sentence.
Avoiding words like “said” helps children improve their writing.
Good writers use rich words in moderation, for effect.
In times when expectations can change at the drop of a hat, flexibility is as important as speed. However, in their zeal for efficiency, some organizations have engineered out all the slack they can from their businesses at the expense of agility. As Tom DeMarco puts it in his book Slack, ‘An organization that can accelerate but not change direction is like a car that can speed up but not steer. In the short run, it makes lots of progress in whatever direction it happened to be going. In the long run, it’s just another road wreck.’
Which of the options below conveys the main idea of the paragraph best?
Only organizations that are not very efficient can adapt to change well.
Too little slack in organizations is as bad for innovation as too much slack.
Reducing slack to zero can cost businesses their adaptability to change.
Business processes without slack slow down an organization’s progress.
While society is chipping away at giving girls broader access to life’s possibilities, it isn’t presenting boys with a full continuum of how they can be in the world. To carve out a masculine identity requires whittling away everything that falls outside the norms of boyhood. At the earliest ages, it’s about external signifiers like favorite colors, TV shows, and clothes. But later, the paring knife cuts away intimate friendships, emotional range, and open communication
Which of the following options puts forth the main idea of this paragraph best?
Boys are put in a straitjacket in order to conform to the popular, narrow view of masculine identity.
It is lopsided to approach gender equality by focusing only on girls’ empowerment.
It is a societal loss that boys are not allowed free self-expression.
Boys are forced to limit their emotional range in order to carve out a masculine identity.
