Due to the effect of Noise the pins may get triggered if they are positive edge triggered.. So... 3.What is the difference between IIR and FIR filter?? Don't ever give the expansions of both..Answer is IIR requires larger hardware to implement whereas FIR requires simple circuits. 4.Why many people are opting for "Image processing" field these days?? This depends on you .. on how you have used it in your life.... 5.What is the function of ALE pin in microprocessor?? Answer is .. whenever it is triggered it latches the address to the latch... used for multiplexing the bus... And they might ask questions on the projects you have done in your academics (Resume)..

It is frequently assumed that the mechanization of work has a revolutionary effect on the lives of the people who operate the new machines and on the society into which the machines have been Introduced. For example, It has been suggested that the employment of women in industry took them out of the household, their traditional sphere, and fundamentally altered their position in society.

In the nineteenth century, when women began to enter factories, Jules Simon, a French politician, warned that by doing so, women would give up their femininity. Friedrich Engel's, however, predicted that women would be liberated from the "social, legal, and economic subordination" of the family by technologic developments that made possible the recruitment of "the whole female sex into public Industry." Observers thus differed concerning the social desirability of mechanization's effects, but they agreed that it would transform women's lives. Historians, particularly those investigating the history of women, now seriously question this assumption of transforming power. They conclude that such dramatic technological innovations as the spinning jenny, thesewing machine, the typewriter, and the vacuum cleaner have not resulted in equally dramatic social changes in women's economic position or in the prevailing evaluation of women's work. The employment of young women in textile mills during the Industrial Revolution was largely an extension of an older pattern of employment of young, single women as domestics. It was not the change in office technology, but rather the separation of secretarial work, previously seen as an apprenticeship for beginning managers, from administrative work that in the 1880's created a new class of "dead end" jobs, henceforth

considered "women's work." The increase in the numbers of married women employed outside the home in the twentieth century had less to do with the mechanizations of housework and an increase in leisure time for these women than It did with their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool of single women workers, previously, in many cases, the only women employers would hire. Women's work has changed considerably in the past 200 years, moving from the household to the office or the factory, and later becoming mostly white collar instead of blue-collar work. Fundamentally, however, the conditions under which women work have changed little since before the Industrial Revolution: the segregation of occupations by gender, lower pay for women as a group, jobs that require relatively low levels of skill and offer women little opportunity for advancement all persist, while women's household labor remains demanding. Recent historical investigation has led to a major revision of the notion that technology is always inherently revolutionary In it effects on society. Mechanization may even have slowed any change in the traditional position of women both in the labor market and in the home. 33) Which of the following statements best summarizes the main idea of the passage?

A) The effects of the mechanization of women's work have not borne out the frequently held assumption that new technology is inherently revolutionary. B) Recent studies have shown that mechanization revolutionizes a society's traditional values and the customary roles of its members. C) Mechanization has caused the nature of women's work to change since the Industrial Revolution. D) The mechanization of work creates whole new classes of jobs that did not previously exist. 34) The author mentions all of the following inventions as examples of dramatic technological innovations EXCEPT the: A) Sewing machine B) Typewriter C) Vacuum cleaner D) Telephone 35) It can be inferred from the passage that, before the Industrial Revolution, the majority of women's work was done in which of the following settings? A) Textile mills B) Offices C) Private households D) Factories

36) It can be inferred from the passage that the author would consider which of the following to be an indication of a fundamental alteration in the conditions of women's work? A) Statistics showing that the majority of women now occupy white-collar positions. B) Interviews with married men indicating that they are now doing some household tasks C) Surveys of the labor market documenting the recent creation of a new class of jobs in electronics in which women workers outnumber men four to one. D) Census results showing that working women's wages and salaries are, on the average, as high as those of working men. 37) The passages states that, before the twentieth century, which of the following was true of many employers? A) They did not employ women in factories. B) They tended to employ single rather than married women. C) They employed women in only those jobs that were related to women's traditional household work. D) They resisted technological innovations that would radically change women's roles in the family.

Directions for Questions 38-42: Keats, perhaps, is the saddest example of a fine spirit hounded to death by savage criticism; because, whatever his biographers may aver, that furious attack of Gifford and Terry undoubtedly expedited his death. But no doubt there are hundreds who suffer keenly from hostile and unscrupulous criticism, and who have to bear that suffering in silence, because it is a cardinal principle in literature that the most unwise thing in the world for an author is to take public notice of criticism in the way of defending himself. Silence is the only safeguard, as it is the only dignified protest against insult and offence. 38) Why is the literary life mostly an unhappy one? A) Because a genius suffers the penalty of genius, and a talented person has so many cares and worries B) Because it is mostly a lonely life C) Because it does not pay much materialistically D) Because it is difficult to get a reading public 39) What are the ambitions of a young author? A) To be acknowledged as a new light in literature B) To be able to reveal himself C) To gain a public ear D) To get his composition published

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on : 40) Are editors and publishers sympathetic to young the basis of the information provided in the passage. authors? Unquestionably, a literary life is for most part an unhappy life, because, if you have genius, you must suffer the penalty of genius; and, if you have only talent, there are so many cares and worries incidental to the circumstances of men of letters, as to make life exceedingly miserable. Besides the pangs of composition, and the continuous disappointment which a true artist feel sat his inability to reveal himself, there is the everrecurring difficulty of gaining the public ear. Young writers are buoyed up by the hope and the belief that they have only to throw that poem at the world's feet to get back in return the laurel-crown; that they have only to push that novel into print to be acknowledged at once as a new light in literature. You can never convince a young author that the editors of magazines and the publishers of books are a practical body of men, who are by no means frantically anxious about placing the best literature before the public. Nay, that for the most part they are mere brokers, who conduct their business on the hardest lines of a Profit and Loss account. But supposing your book fairly launches,

its perils are only beginning. You have to run the gauntlet of the critics. To a young author, again, this seems to be as terrible an ordeal as passing down the files of Sioux or Comanche Indians, each one of whom is thirsting for your scalp. When you are a little older, you will find that criticism Is not much more serious than the bye-play of clowns In a circus. when they beat around the ring. the victim with bladders slung at the end of long poles.

In A Survey Of Job Applicants, Two-fifths Admitted To Being At Least A Little Dishonest. However, The Survey May Underestimate The Proportion Of Job Applicants Who Are Dishonest, Because____. A. Some Dishonest People Taking The Survey Might Have Claimed On The Survey To Be Honest

B. Some Generally Honest People Taking The Survey Might Have Claimed On The Survey To Be Dishonest C. Some People Who Claimed On The Survey To Be At Least A Little Dishonest May Be Very Dishonest D. Some People Who Claimed On The Survey To Be Dishonest May Have Been Answering Honestly E. Some People Who Are Not Job Applicants Are Probably At Least A Little Dishonest Answer With Explanation: A Is The Best Answer. If Applicants Who Are In Fact Dishonest Claimed To Be Honest, The Survey Results Would Show A Smaller Proportion Of Dishonest Applicants Than Actually Exists. Therefore, This Choice Is The Best Answer. B Is Inappropriate Because Generally Honest Applicants Who Claimed To Be Dishonest Could Contribute To The Overestimation, But Not To The Underestimation, Of Dishonest Applicants. D Is Inappropriate Because Applicants Who Admitted Their Dishonesty Would Not Contribute To An Underestimation Of The Proportion Of Dishonest Applicants. C And E Are

Inappropriate Because The Argument Is Concerned Neither With Degrees Of Dishonesty Nor With The Honesty Of Non-applicants. 2. The Average Life Expectancy For The United States Population As A Whole Is 73.9 Years, But Children Born In Hawaii Will Live An Average Of 77 Years, And Those Born In Louisiana, 71.7 Years. If A Newlywed Couple From Louisiana Were To Begin Their Family In Hawaii, Therefore, Their Children Would Be Expected To Live Longer Than Would Be The Case If The Family Remained In Louisiana. Which Of The Following, If True, Would Most Seriously Weaken The Conclusion Drawn In The Passage? A. Insurance Company Statisticians Do Not Believe That Moving To Hawaii Will Significantly Lengthen The Average Louisianan's Life. B. The Governor Of Louisiana Has Falsely Alleged That Statistics For His State Are Inaccurate. C. The Longevity Ascribed To Hawaii's Current Population Is Attributable Mostly To Genetically Determined Factors.

D. Thirty Percent Of All Louisianans Can Expect To Live Longer Than 77 Years. E. Most Of The Hawaiian Islands Have Levels Of Air Pollution Well Below The National Average For The United States. Answer With Explanation: C Is The Best Answer. This Choice Suggests That A Significant Proportion Of Hawaii's Population Is Genetically Predisposed To Be Long Lived. Since Louisianans Are Not Necessarily So Predisposed, And Since The Louisianans' Children Will Acquire Their Genetic Characteristics From Their Parents, Not From Their Birthplace, This Choice Presents A Reason To Doubt That Hawaiian Born Children Of Native Louisianans Will Have An Increased Life Expectancy. Therefore, This Choice Is The Best Answer. Because The Conclusion Concerns People Born In Hawaii, Not The Average Louisianan, A Does Not Weaken The Conclusion. Because The Governor's Allegation Is False, It Cannot Affect The Conclusion. D Fails To Weaken The Conclusion Because It Is Consistent With The Information Given And The Conclusion About Life Expectancy. By Suggesting That Hawaii's Environment Is In One

Respect Particularly Healthy, E Supports The Conclusion. Next Round Is Technical Interview: It Was A Fine Morning Around 9:30 when My Interview Started. My Interviewer Is A Cool Person. As This Was My 1st Interview I Was Very Tensed But He Made Me Relaxed By Discussing Some Current Affairs And Then Started Asking. Tell Me About Yourself. What Is Ur Favorite Subject?

7 What Is Storage Class? What Are The Different Storage Classes In C? 8 What The Advantages Of Using Unions? 9. In C, Why Is The Void Pointer Useful? When Would You Use It? 10 What Is Pointer To A Pointer? 11 What Is Dynamic Memory Allocation? 12 What Is The Purpose Of Realloc? 13 How Would You Use The Functions Fseek(), Freed(), Fwrite() And Ftell()? 14 What Are The Types Of File?

Outside, the rain continued to run down the screened windows of Mrs. Sennetts little Cape Cod cottage. The long weeds and grass that composed the front yard dripped against the blurred background of the bay, where the water was almost the color of the grass. Mrs. Sennetts five charges were vigorously playing house in the dining room. (In the wintertime, Mrs. Sennett was housekeeper for a Mr. Curley, in Boston, and during the summers the Curley children boarded with her on the Cape.) My expression must have changed. Are those children making too much noise? Mrs. Sennett demanded, a sort of wave going over her that might mark the beginning of her getting up out of her chair.

I shook my head no, and gave her a little push on the shoulder to keep her seated. Mrs. Sennett was almost stone-deaf and had been for a long time, but she could read lips. You could talk to her without making any sound yourself, if you wanted to, and she more than kept up her side of the conversation in a loud, rusty voice that dropped weirdly every now and then into a whisper. She adored talking. To look at Mrs. Sennett made me think of eighteenthcentury England and its literary figures. Her hair must have been sadly thin, because she always wore, indoors and out, either a hat or a sort of turban, and sometimes she wore both. The rims of her eyes were dark; she looked very ill. Mrs. Sennett and I continued talking. She said she really didnt think shed stay with the children another winter. Their father wanted her to, but it was too much for her. She wanted to stay right here in the cottage. The afternoon was getting along, and I finally left because I knew that at four oclock Mrs. Sennetts sit down was over and she started to get supper. At six oclock, from my nearby cottage, I saw Theresa coming through the rain with a shawl over her head. She was bringing me a six-inch-square piece of spice cake , still hot from the oven and kept warm between two soup plates. A few days later I learned from the twins, who brought over gifts of

firewood and blackberries, that their father was coming the next morning, bringing their aunt and her husband and their cousin. Mrs. Sennett had promised to take them all on a picnic at the pond some pleasant day. On the fourth day of their visit, Xavier arrived with a note. It was from Mrs. Sennett, written in blue ink, in a large, serene, ornamented hand, on linen-finish paper:. . . Tomorrow is the last day Mr. Curley has and the Children all wanted the Picnic so much. The Men can walk to the Pond but it is too far for the Children. I see your Friend has a car and I hate to ask this but could you possibly drive us to the Pond tomorrow morning? . . .Very sincerely yours, Carmen Sennett After the picnic, Mrs. Sennetts presents to me were numberless. It was almost time for the children to go back to school in South Boston. Mrs. Sennett insisted that she was not going; their father was coming down again to get them and she was just going to stay. } He would have to get another housekeeper. She said this over and over to me, loudly, and her turbans and kerchiefs grew more and more distrait. One evening, Mary came to call on me and we sat on an old table in the back yard to watch the sunset. Papa came today, She said, and weve got to go back day after tomorrow. Is Mrs. Sennett going to stay here?

She said at supper she was. She said this time she really was, because shed said that last year and came back, but now she me ans it .I said, Oh dear, scarcely knowing which side I was on. It was awful at supper. I cried and cried. Did Theresa cry? Oh, we all cried. Papa cried, too. We always do. But dont you think Mrs. Sennett needs a rest? Yes, but I think shell come, though. Papa told her hed cry every single night at supper if she didnt, and then we all did. The next day I heard that Mrs. Sennett was going back with them just to help settle. She came over the following morning to say goodbye, supported by all five children. She was wearing her traveling hat of black satin and black straw, with sequins. High and somber, above her ravaged face, it had quite a Spanish randee air. This isnt really goodbye, she said. Ill be back as soon as I get these bad, noisy children off my hands.

The pioneers of the teaching of science imagined that its introduction into education would remove the conventionality, artificiality, and backward-

lookingness which were characteristic;of classical studies, but they were gravely disappointed. So, too, in their time had the humanists thought that the study of the classical authors in the original would banish at once the dull pedantry and superstition of mediaeval scholasticism. The professional schoolmaster was a match for both of them, and has almost managed to make the understanding of chemical reactions as dull and as dogmatic an affair as the reading of Virgil's Aeneid. The chief claim for the use of science in education is that it teaches a child something about the actual universe in which he is living, in making him acquainted with the results of scientific discovery, and at the same time teaches him how to think logically and inductively by studying scientific method. A certain limited success has been reached in the first of these aims, but practically none at all in the second. Those privileged members of the community who have been through a secondary or public school education may be expected to know something about the elementary physics and chemistry of a hundred years ago, but they probably know hardly more than any bright boy can pick up from an interest in wireless or scientific hobbies out of school hours.

As to the learning of scientific method, the whole thing is palpably a farce. Actually, for the convenience of teachers and the requirements of the examination system, it is necessary that the pupils not only do not learn scientific method but learn precisely the reverse, that is, to believe exactly what they are told and to reproduce it when asked, whether it seems nonsense to them or not. The way in which educated people respond to such quackeries as spiritualism or astrology, not to say more dangerous ones such as racial theories or currency myths, shows that fifty years of education in the method of science in Britain or Germany has produced no visible effect whatever. The only way of learning the method of science is the long and bitter way of personal experience, and, until the educational or social systems are altered to make this possible, the best we can expect is the production of a minority of people who are able to acquire some of the techniques of science and a still smaller minority who are able to use and develop them. 11. The author implies that the 'professional schoolmaster' has a) No interest in teaching science b) Thwarted attempts to enliven education

c) Aided true learning d) Supported the humanists e) Been a pioneer in both science and humanities. Ans: B 12. The authors attitude to secondary and public school education in the sciences is a) Ambivalent b) Neutra c) Supportive d) Satirical e) Contemptuous Ans: e 13.

Astrology (line 31) is mentioned as an example of a) A science that needs to be better understood b) A belief which no educated people hold c) Something unsupportable to those who have absorbed the methods of science d) The gravest danger to society e) An acknowledged failure of science Ans: c

Directions for Questions 17-20: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage. Furthermore, insofar as any conclusion about its author can be drawn from five or six plays attributed to him, the Wakefield Master is without exception considered to be a man of sharp contemporary observation. He was, probably clerically educated, as indicated by his Latin and music, his Biblical and patristic lore. Even today he is remembered for his his quick sympathy for the oppressed and forgotten man, his sharp eye for character, a ready ear for colloquial, vernacular turns of speech and a humor alternately rude and boisterous, coarse and happy. Therefore in spite of his conscious artistry as can be seen in his feeling for intricate metrical and stanza forms, he is regarded as a kind of medieval Steinbeck, indignantly angry at, uncompromisingly and even brutally realistic in presenting the plight of the agricultural poor. It is now fairly accepted to regard the play as a kind of ultimate point in the secularization of the medieval drama. Therefore more stress has been laid on it as depicting realistically humble manners and pastoral life in the bleak of the west riding of Yorkshire on a typically cold night of December

24th. After what are often regarded as almost ''documentaries'' given in the three successive monologues of the three shepherds, critics go on to affirm that the realism is then intensified into a burlesque mock-treatment of the Nativity. Finally as a sort of epilogue or after-thought in deference to the Biblical origins of the materials, the play slides back into an atavistic mood of early innocent reverence. In actuality, the final scene is the culminating scene and also the raison detre of the introductory ''realism.'' Superficially the present play supports the conventional view of its mood of secular realism. At the same time, the ''realism'' of the Wakefield Master is of a paradoxical turn. His wide knowledge of people, as well as books indicates no cloistered contemplative but one in close relation to his times. Still, that life was after all a predominantly religious one, a time which never neglected the belief that man was a rebellious and sinful creature in need of redemption . So deeply (one can hardly say ''naively'' of so sophisticated a writer) and implicitly religious is the Master that he is less able (or less willing) to present actual history realistically than is the author of the Brome Abraham and Isaac. His historical sense is even less realistic than that of Chaucer who just a few years before had done for

his own time ''costume romances,'' such as The Knight's Tele, Troilus and Cressida, etc. Furthermore, used highly romantic materials, which could excuse his taking liberties with history. 17. Of the following statements, which is not true of Wakefield Master? a) He and Chaucer were contemporaries. b) Wakefield Master is remembered as having written five or six realistic plays. c) His plays realistically portray the plight of the country folk of his day d) His writing was similar to that of John Steinbeck. e) He was an accomplished artist. Ans: d 18. The word 'patristic' in the first paragraph is used to mean. a) Patriotic b) Superstitious c) Folk d) Relating to the Christian Fathers e) Realistic Ans: d 19. The statement about the ''secularization of the medieval drama'' (opening sentence of the second paragraph) refers to the

a) Introduction of religious themes in the early days b) Presentation of erudite material c) Use of contemporary materials d) Return to early innocent reverence at the end of the play e) Introduction of mundane matters in religious plays Ans: e 20. From the following what would the writer be expected to do in the subsequent paragraphs. a) Make a justification for his comparison with Steinbeck b) Put forth a view point, which would take up the thought of the second paragraph c) Point out the anachronisms in the play d) Discuss the works of Chaucer e) Talk about the lack of realism in the works of the Wakefield Master.
