Directions (19- 25): Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow:
For nearly as long as the Taliban have been at war, Maulvi Abbas has been in the middle of it,
leading a small squad of insurgent fighters in Nangarhar Province and demonstrating a certain
talent for survival and success. But in May, he was captured by the Taliban‘s newest enemy, the
Islamic State, said residents in one of the districts where Maulvi Abbas often stayed.
Throughout the month, fighters claiming allegiance to the Islamic State‘s caliph had been
attacking veteran Taliban units south and east of Jalalabad, the provincial capital. In one district,
Islamic State loyalists have replaced the Taliban as the dominant insurgent power, and elsewhere
they have begun making inroads in Taliban territory, one tribal elder, Mohammad Siddiq
Mohmand, said in an interview.
In places where militants in Afghanistan have adopted the Islamic State creed of embracing
atrocity and ruling by fear, their strategy has been to aggressively attack the Taliban, just as in
Syria where the group early on picked fights with more established units affiliated with Al Qaeda.
And the evidence so far this spring suggests the influence of the Islamic State is growing.
Those places of influence remain few — still just a few remote villages after months of effort —
and the lightning-quick rise to power that the Islamic State enjoyed in Syria and Iraq has not come
to pass in Afghanistan. But already, the Islamic State-inspired militants have created a significant
shift: The Taliban insurgency, even as it advances against the Western-backed government, is
having to wrestle with an insurgent threat of its own.
After more than a decade of remaining remarkably unified around the elusive figure of Mullah
Muhammad Omar, the Taliban are splintering to a degree not seen before, as hundreds of
insurgents have shifted their loyalty to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State and
self-declared caliph of the Muslim world.
More is at stake than just which militant Sunni faction controls remote villages. Should the
Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, make larger inroads within Taliban-controlled territory,
it could fundamentally change the insurgency. While the Taliban have carried out public
executions and embraced suicide bombings, the Islamic State‘s embrace of violence — and
penchant for publicizing it through videos and Internet social media — is extreme even by the
Taliban‘s standards.
Through their history, the Taliban have sought to convince Afghans and foreign leaders that their
ambitions are limited to Afghanistan, which the group governed for about five years before being
toppled in 2001. A central Taliban demand has always been the rule of Afghanistan by Afghans, a
platform that resonates well in a country shaped by a history of dogged resistance to foreign
invaders.

Unlike the Islamic State, the Taliban have shown a willingness to negotiate with regional powers,
albeit in a limited way. Recently, the Taliban announced that they had sent a delegation to Iran —
which has long viewed the Taliban‘s brand of Sunni extremism with a wariness bordering on
hostility — as part of a broader series of diplomatic trips to several countries to ―discuss bilateral
issues, form, expand and strengthen ties.‖ The move comes at a time when the Iranian government
is directly helping the fight against Islamic State units in Syria and Iraq.
So far, the number of Islamic State-inspired militants in Afghanistan has remained low compared
with the Taliban‘s total force, and is far from posing an existential threat. ―Daesh has been
recruiting in Afghanistan since at least April 2014, without much success so far, considering how
long they‘ve been at it,‖ said Graeme Smith, a senior analyst for the International Crisis Group in
Kabul, using the Islamic State‘s Arabic acronym. ―We started tracking groups last fall, and they
usually number in the dozens. Some number in the hundreds, but none in the thousands.‖ Still, for
the Taliban, the new Islamic State offshoots clearly present the worry of larger-scale defections.
Although some of the Islamic State units are said to be bolstered by foreign fighters — in the
north, for example, bands of fighters allied with the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan have
declared allegiance to the Islamic State — most are said to be led by former Taliban. Some had
been thrown out over ideological differences or for insubordination.
Perhaps seeking to keep from widening the phenomenon, the Taliban have so far dealt somewhat
gingerly with the Islamic State upstarts they find in their midst. In several places across the
country, they have sent delegations to Islamic State units with what often boils down to a cease
and desist message, local leaders say.

34. A foreclosure is basically a process of selling out any asset used as collateral by a borrower
who is unable to pay back the loan. The bank finds a way to recover its money by selling the
assets of the borrower. However, a pre-foreclosure is what precedes a foreclosure. If a borrower
is late with at least one payment he receives a notice about it. The property regarding which he
gets the notice is the pre-foreclosure. It is this stage before a property is legally foreclosed when
a buyer can jump in and discover the entire pool of opportunities. Buyers can make deals with
the owner or the lender.

A. There are various elements of foreclosure that any bank goes through while starting the
process of foreclosure.

regarding various theories that have been developed in our systems since time immemorial. In
connection with the newly discovered fact that our old Earth has been expanding since the

theory to a large extent.With the possible success of such a theory, one can establish that all the
continents once fitted together perfectly and covered only one-third part of the Earth that we
see today. And if that had happened then the dinosaurs would have found it easy to stroll across
from one continent to the other upon dry land because Africa, Europe and America would have
been placed in close proximity to each other.
Which of the following summarizes the paragraph?
A. The history of the earth is a long and boring one.
B. The geographical expansion of the Earth has taken a long time.
C. Hollow Earth theory is one that has helped in explaining the evolution of earth as it is today.

computers.
