SECTION – IV: LEGAL REASONING


135. A; At the time of making the attempt to commit suicide SalluBhai was not in the right state of
mind and his mental capacity was compromised due to the disease. As a result he could have
not been expected to make decisions in the best of his interests.

136. A; Slipping on the soapy water was an easliy foreseeable danger arising out of Ramu Kaka’s action
and thus Ramu Kaka ought to have taken more care while cleaning the office. b. could also be
a correct answer but a. is a more comprehensive answer.

137. D; he is guilty as he married during the subsistence of his first marriage. b. could not be the
correct answer as the reasoning given for the answer is incorrect. The seven year rule applies
to the relatives of the person presumed to be dead and not to the person himself.

138. A; He could not be held guilty of the offence as there was no mensrea, viz., the mental element
involved which is an important ingredient to constitute a crime.

139. A; From a reasonable man’s perspective, a mere vicious grin by Inspector Dubey cannot indicate
some kind of danger to Muchchad’s daughter and Muchchad was wrong in making such
presumption, thus his free will was not compromised with in any way.

140. A; Firstly, Pia dishonestly took the keys out of the possession of her father, the dean which is an
illegal act. Secondly, she agreed to hande over the keys to Rancho knowing the purpose behind
his asking for the keys which makes her part of the criminal conspiracy.

141. B; The answer could not be c. as data saved in digital format are also recognised as intellectual
property under the Information Technology Act, 2000.

142. C; No, as there was no intention to cause harm or damage to the public or any person which is an
essential ingredient to constitute mischief.

143. A; Yes, this can give rise to a defamation proceeding. Stating true facts about something is a
general exception to defamation which is allowed under the principle but making malaria and
cow dung synonymous terms for India could not be said to be stating true facts as it gives a
very exaggerated version of the two problems persisting in India.

144. B; Because the ban is on advertising tobacco in India and not making of advertisements as such.

145. B; Mr. Duggal would not be liable under the theft principle, though he could be made liable for
extending the authorised used without the permission of the owner of the car.

146. C; Playing cricket in that field was something that Mr. Sharma had been putting up with for last
15 years and so he lost his cause action as per Principle 3 but the cricket ball entering his
boundary was a onetime incident which could be termed as nuisance as per Principle 2 and
gave him a fresh cause of action against Rohit. Whereas Suhel would be guilty of all three as he
entered the boundary of Mr. Sharma without his permission and dishonestly moved his
property (the mangoes) from his premises.

147. D; Dom is guilty of attempt of suicide as per Principle 1. Nissim is guilty of battery and assault as
he use to beat up Dom regularly and threaten him. He is also guilty of abetment of suicide as
his continuous harassment was the reason for Dom attempt to commit suicide. Being the
principal of the institute Mr. Seth had serious professional responsibility of taking due care of
his students. Being at a post like this his responsibility was to make arrangements for
emergency situations when he would be absent. His inaction in this case where positive
measures were necessary made him liable of negligence and abetment of suicide.

148. D; The answer is self explanatory.

149. D; It is clearly mentioned in the facts that he had recovered from his depression. He was a person
of sound mind at the time of the act and was drinking out of his own free will and not under
the coercion or influence of someone else and thus cannot take the defence of involuntary
intoxication. The defence of sudden and grave provocation would also not be available to him
as the defence arises only when the provocation is from the person on whom the wrong is
committed.

150. D; Sylvia was in a medically unfit mental condition which can be used in her defence against the
charges of destruction of property, abetment to suicide and attempt to suicide. Whereas for
Ted, he can use the defence of sudden and grave provocation.

151. D; This is the most appropriate answer amongst the option given. Shyamlal is only liable of fraud
and not in criminal conspiracy as he did not take part in plotting criminal act of killing Suman
but only made a fraudulent statement.

152. D; Bhalu is not guilty of either culpable homicide or murder as Sonu’s death was not caused by
the bullet fired by him. Sonu died due to his own negligence of not getting his wound treated
and letting it turn septic, ultimately leading to his death.

153. D; It cannot be theft or extortion or criminal misappropriation because at the time the typewriter
was given to Snil it was out of Shakti’s own free will without any dishonest intention or threat.
But it will be a criminal breach of trust because Sunil and Shakti shared a relationship of trust
which was breached by Sunil when he did not follow the instruction of Sunil and used the
typewriter for his own personal gain.

154. D; X could be charged with tresspass under tort but not for criminal tresspass as the men rea is
absent in this case alongwith the actusreus. His intention was just to use the land as a passage
and not to intimidate, insult or annoy Y.

SECTION – V: LOGICAL REASONING


155. D; (a) The company that holds the patent to Healica has exclusive rights to produce the drug for
another 10 years.
This choice would require another assumption in order to weaken the conclusion: that the
one company producing Healica would not produce enough of it to kill off the banananut
tree. Weakeners, like strengtheners, shouldn’t require so much work to fit into the
argument.
(b) Healica is expensive, and is not currently covered by most major insurance plans.
This choice, like choice a), is not closely enough related to the argument.
(c) Banananut leaves are considered a gourmet delicacy in many parts of the world.
This choice makes it more likely that the trees will be in demand and will face extinction.
The argument is strengthened, not weakened, by this choice.
(d) The banananut tree, although native to New Zealand, can easily be grown in other parts of
the world.
This is the correct answer, since it exploits the unstated assumptions by explicitly
disproving that one of them.
(e) Producing Healica is time-consuming and expensive for the drug manufacturer.

156. B; (a) While this is partly correct it does not culminate into the conclusion of restricting the
number of flights.
(b) this correctly informs the conclusion
(c) it says the opposite of the comment
(d) no alternative is suggested, the comment only reinforces
(e) irrelevant.

157. D; the fallacy is assuming that the probability is cyclical. Hence answer is D, which states that each
try is unique and the probability of a colour’s appearing is the same

158. C; the author’s conclusion is that the Big Bang Theory is no longer undermined by Helium – 3
data. But the first bold face proves the opposite by giving facts that showed an inconsistency in

the theory and reality. However this inconsistency is resolved later by the new model of
researchers.

159. E; (a) this does not rule out discrimination as more females could have the same qualification.
(b) again this does not rule out discrimination of low numbers of females.
(c) while this helps the argument to an extent but misses out on qualification. The greater
number of applications for men does not necessitate their being more qualified.
(d) if you’ve chosen this statement then it shows your inherent biases towards working
women and their calibre and interests, also in judging you!
(e) this shows despite numbers who applied or did not, all those chosen have been on merit
and not any bias. Hence this is the answer.

160. A; there is a mismatch of keywords. Facts talk about 20 years experience and conclusion says
efficient typist. So we need to look for an option that says; twenty years = efficient typist.
Hence your answer is a.

161. B; the critics are against the release and upkeep of the criminals so now we need to explain why
in order to justify it. This is done in B, where the assumption that punishment is their main
focus is necessary for them to criticise this policy of the government

162. B; we have to weaken the claim that the given product is healthy as it does not have additives.
That means add a new premise that it is still unhealthy. So option B does that.

163. D; all of A, B,C and E are necessary for the conclusion to be valid. It’s use as a small grated
amount is necessary however not necessarily in salads.

164. C; the first bold face states a fact that disproves the claim of scientists and the second is the main
premise of the author’s conclusion.

165. D; Barbie’s claims are towards agents. Options A and B show that online markets need not help,
while C and E support agents. D however defeats her claim as it states that in order to buy a
cheaper house agents have to be paid extra.

166. A; so while the passage reaffirms that safe drivers are the ones that wear seat belts which they
don’t need as they drive safely, A gives a new premise to say that their seat belts save them
(safe drivers) from being injured by reckless drivers and hence this premise validates the
conclusion that seat belts are needed.

167. E; we have to weaken the conclusion that French enjoy Chinese food, yet the facts show that
there are numerous Chinese restaurants in France. E explains it by saying that those
restaurants are there to cater to an American population of tourists. Hence it is the correct
answer.

168. B; If there are n teams, then number of matches would be n – 1.


Thus, there will be 50 matches. Hence, (b)

169. B; The riddle, the 'facts' of which may or may not be true, results in the following equation:
x / 6 + x / 12 + x / 7 + 5 + x / 2 + 4 = x
where x is Salman's age at the time of his death.
Therefore, Salmna lived exactly 84 years.Hence, (b)

170. B; Hard, using the first letter of the first word, the second letter of the second word, etc. Hence,
(b)

171. B; He need not cut the last metre.


Thus, he will take 149 seconds in all. Hence, (b)

172. A; One cut means that 2 pieces will be achieved (say length wise).
To maximize the number of pieces he should do the 1 cut each breadth wise and height wise.
This means total pieces = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8 pieces. Hence, (a)

173. B; 0 sevens occur at unit places 7, 17, 27,……97


And 10 sevens occur at ten’s place 70, 71, 72, ….., 79
Thus, overall there would be 20 seven’s. Hence, (b)

174. A; There are 64 “1×1” squares. Then 49 “2×2” squares and so on..upto 1 “8×8” square.
Therefore, there are actually 64 + 49 + 36 + 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 1 squares
= 204 squares on a chessboard. Hence, (a)

175. B; Socks do not come in in left and right, so any black will pair with any other black and any white
will pair with any other white. If you have three socks and they are either colored black or
white, then you will have at least two socks of the same color, giving you one matching pair.
Hence, (b)

176. C; Mary's mothers fourth child will be Mary herself.Hence, (c)

177. B; 12 pairs of shoes = 224 shoes.


= 224 ÷ 28 = 8.
Hence, (b)

178. A; If x = the number of men,


then x + 2x + 4x = 35.
Therefore 7x = 35.
So x = 5.
Hence, (a)

179. A; The next cube number below 64(4 ×4 ×4) is 27(3 ×3 ×3).
In order to construct a solid cube, therefore, with none left over,
59 – 27 = 32 blocks need to be taken away.
Hence, (a)

180. A; Total handshakes will be 20C2 = 190. Hence, (a)

181. A; It is April May June and so on.
After November comes December.
Thus, next term is D. Hence, (a)

182. C; It is One Two Three and so on.


Thus, next term will be Eleven.Hence, (c).
