patterns. An intricate pattern is made up of many small
details. It is complicated, not simple. The noun from
simple is simplicity.
41. (d) If you ameliorate a situation, you make it better or easier
in some way. The opposite of better is worse. If you
make a situation worse, you worsen it.
42. (b) The fielding of the Indian cricket team is lackadaisical.
That is, the fielders do not show much interest or
enthusiasm; they are rather lazy. Jadeja, however, is an
exception. He is Energetic.
43. (a) He was fed up with the capricious behaviour of his
wife. It began to prove difficult for him to fulfil her
caprices. A caprice is an unexpected action or decision;
HINTS & SOLUTION
12
It has no strong reason or purpose. In fact, the
husband could not tolerate her. He was a thoughtful
man; his actions were based on reason.
44. (a) One who is perfidious is treacherous or untrustworthy.
He may be with you today and against you tomorrow.
On the other hand, a local person remains Firm in his
or her friendship or support.
45. (b) Ennui is a feeling of tiredness, boredom and
dissatisfaction caused by lack of interest and having
nothing to do. Only activity (something to do) can be
its antidote. [An antidote is a substance that prevents
the bad effects of a disease.]
46. (c) One who is lascivious shows an unnaturally strong
interest in sex. On the other hand, a chaste person
does not have sex with anyone, or has it only with his
or her spouse.
47. (c) Rachna is very conscientious about her actions. That
is, she is very careful to do her work properly. Now, the
opposite of careful is careless.
48. (a) The perigee is the point where the path of an object
through space is closest to the Earth. The apogee is
the point where the path is farthest from the Earth.
49. (b) How do you rectify voltage fluctuations ? With the
help of a voltage stabiliser. If something fluctuates, it
changes a lot in an irregular way. If you stop this, it
becomes stable.
50. (a) Radical comes from Latin radix (= root). If you make a
radical change in something, the change goes to its
very roots, thus affecting the entire thing. On the other
hand, there are changes which do not disturb the entire
thing; the changes take place only on the surface. In
other words, they are superficial changes.
51. (c) Four of the judges were in accord with one another
while one dissented. That is, four of them were in
agreement with one another on the judgement. There
was no conflict between their opinions. One judge,
however, did not share the majority opinions. He was
of a different opinion. In other words, he dissented.
52. (a) All reservations have been abolished from this year!
Hari Paswan, a scheduled caste candidate, has fallen a
hapless victim to the new law. That is, he was unlucky
not to have taken the exam last year. His elder brother,
Barkhu, was lucky enough to have made it last year.
53. (b) Farming on such a barren land! It is a frivolous project.
That is, it would only entail a wastage of time and
money. It is not useful. It would make no significant
(important) contribution to ameliorating the plight of
the poor.
54. (d) Kashmir is an integral part of India. That is, it is an
essential part of India without which the country
cannot be complete. It cannot be separated from the
country. That is what most of the people believe.
However, a handful of people believe it should be
independent - that it has no connection whatsoever
with the rest of India.
55. (b) Holistic medicine treats the whole person, not just the
diseased part. That which is holistic is based on the
principles of holism. Holism is the belief that everything
in nature is connected in some way. A piecemeal
approach, on the other hand, deals with only one part
at a time.
56. (d) There has been an extension of STD facility to 2000
more villages. In other words, there has been an
addition to the number of villages under STD coverage.
Now, the opposite of addition is subtraction.
57. (a) One who is indigent is very poor. The opposite of
poor is rich.
58. (d) Audacity is audacious behaviour. If you are audacious,
you take risks in order to achieve something. So it is a
kind of bravery. Now, the opposite of bravery is
cowardice.
59. (a) An elevation is a ‘piece of ground that is higher
(elevated) than the area around it. A depression in a
surface is an area which is lower (depressed) than the
parts surrounding it.
60. (a) Cows are sacred to the Hindus. Killing of cows is a
profane act for them. That is, they consider the act to
be a disrespect for the religion, and therefore sinful.
Pious (very religious and moral) Hindus would plug
their ears even if they heard of it.
61. (a) The Vedas are unfathomable; that is, one cannot fully
understand the depth of their meaning. The
commentaries, however, are simplified versions easy
to understand. In other words, they are comprehensible.
62. (b) The controversy led to a termination of the contract.
That is, the contract came to an end. The opposite of
End is beginning.
63. (a) My success is due to my elder brother, who has
inspired me at every point. That is, he encouraged me
to go ahead with my work. The opposite of encouraged
is discouraged.
64. (d) Only 76 countries participated in the meet. The rest
boycotted it. That is, they refused to participate (take
part) in it because they disapproved of it.
65. (a) Some people believe that reservations are against the
idea of an egalitarian society. An egalitarian society
supports or follows the idea that all people are equal;
they should have the same right and opportunities. So
why give special rights to some? Others, however, feel
that the society, as it stands today, is unequal. Only
reservations can bring an equilibrium and make the
society egalitarian.
66. (a) A deficiency of iodine leads to goitre. In other words,
iodine is riot present in enough quantity. On the other
hand, if it be present in large quantities, that is more
than enough (usually), we say it is in abundance.
67. (b) The economy flourishes when there are lesser
restrictions. That is, it grows quickly and strongly.
Imposing of restrictions makes the growth of the
economy retard. That is, it gets slower, as if under
brakes.
68. (b) The veneer of something is the coating from outside.
It is the exterior which often gives a false impression
of the reality inside. The inside of something is its
interior.
13
69. (a) What happens in a dictatorship? All the decisions are
made by the dictator — a ruler who has complete power
in a country. In effect, it becomes a one-man rule.
Countries like India, however, believe in a rule “by the
people”. In other words, we believe in democracy. In a
democracy, power is not centred in one person. The
ruler is merely the representative or the people.
70. (c) Eventually means “at the end”; initially means “in the
beginning”.
71. (a) Dhirubhai Ambani has had a phenomenal (unusually
big) success. Such a success is not usually had by
ordinary persons.
72. (d) A nonchalant person seems not to worry or care about
things. He or she seems very calm. Not at all excited.
73. (a) If you abominate something, you hate it very much.
The opposite of hate is love.
74. (a) An ingenuous person is innocent, trusting, and
incapable of deceiving anyone. He or she lays bare
their tricks. Will a cunning person ever do that?
75. (b) That which is egregious is shocking, extremely had. If
something is extremely good, you call it splendid.
76. (b) Arjuna Ranatunga does not dissipate his energy by
running fast every time he takes a run. That is, he does
not waste it in a foolish way. When he sees that the
ball is distant enough for him to easily reach the crease
for a single, and that no matter how fast he runs he
cannot take more than a single, he simply ambles
across the pitch. He thus conserves (saves) energy
and utilises it when there is need for a quick run.
77. (c) Let him play with this table; it is sturdy enough to bear
his kicks. That which is sturdy looks strong; it is
unlikely to be easily injured or damaged. The antonym
of strong is weak.
78. (d) You think you will persuade him to live a comfortable
life? Impossible! A Spartan way of life is sacrosanct
for him. If something is sacrosanct, it is too holy or
important to be allowed any harm. The opposite of
holy is unholy.
79. (d) One who is celibate does not marry or have sex, because
of one’s religious beliefs. (1), (3) and (4) are close
choices. But we reject (1) and (3) because they have
other meanings too. Profligate and reprobate give a
general sense of wastefulness. Such persons may be
given to vices, sex being one of them. Thus (1) and (3)
can be focussed as an antonym only in absence of (4).
A married man, on the other hand, is categorically not
celibate.
80. (c) Recent advances in technology have rendered older
equipment’s obsolete (no longer in need).
81. (d) A magnanimous person has a “‘big heart”. Well, not
literally. What I mean is that he or she is filled with love
for everyone. The pressures of modern live have made
magnanimous persons an endangered species. It is
getting more and more difficult to think beyond one’
s
self in other words, people are getting selfish.
82. (a) The residents of Katynyan House have been
evacuated. If you evacuate people, you send them to
a place of safety, away from a dangerous building,
town, or area. They will be admitted to the House again
when it gets repaired.
83. (d) We are sanguine about the outcome of this dispute. That
is, we are cheerful and confident that things will turn in
our favour. Now, the opposite of cheerful is gloomy.
84. (d) If a person is very fat, you euphemistically call him or
her corpulent. Emaciated, on the other hand, means
extremely thin or weak because of illness or lack of food.
85. (a) Occidental means “of the West”. That is, it relates to
the countries of Europe and America. The Britishers
brought with them Occidental culture, which greatly
influenced the Oriental values. Oriental means “of the
East”, and is associated with eastern Asia, especially
China and Japan.
86. (b) If a part of someone’s body is flaccid, it is unpleasantly
soft, and not hard or firm. On the other hand, if
something is tout, it is stretched very tight. A taut
body is very lean with firm muscles.
87. (c) If Mr. Mhatre comes to power, his son-in-law will easily
get the licence for a petrol pump. This is what is called
nepotism. That is, power is used unfairly in order to get
jobs or other benefits for your family or friends. In other
words, nepotism promotes partiality towards your near
and dear ones. The antonym, therefore, is impartiality.
88. (c) If you are abstemious, you avoid doing too much of
something enjoyable. For example, you eat or drink in
moderation. The antonym therefore will describe a
person who goes for physical pleasures in excess. Such
a person is dissipated. He or she spends a lot of time
drinking alcohol and enjoying other physical
pleasures, and is probably unhealthy because of this.
89. (b) A chimera is an imaginary monster. So the opposite of
chimerical is real.
90. (a) Verbose comes from Latin verbum (= word). A verbal
test is thus associated with words. The non-verbal
section does not deal with words; its questions are
based on figures. Now, verbose means wordy. So if
you are verbose, you use too many words, more than
what is necessary. On the other hand, laconic reply
uses as few words as possible.
91. (a) Diminutive comes from Latin minuo (= lessen). A minute
particle is very small. If something diminishes, it
becomes smaller. A diminutive object is thus very small.
Obviously, the antonym is enlarged.
92. (d) When one’s immunity to a disease is over, one becomes
susceptible to it. That is, one is then very likely to be
affected by it.
93. (c) Chemistry students should be familiar with amalgam.
Amalgam is a mixture of mercury and another metal,
usually silver, that is used in dentistry to make fillings.
In general, an amalgam is a mixture of two or more
things. So when two or more organisations amalgamate
they become one large organisation. When their
relations deteriorate, they separate.
94. (c) A captious person is too critical, too ready to find
fault. He or she cannot tolerate anything that goes
even a fraction against them. Such persons are not
tolerant at all.
14
95. (c) The difficulties are manifold. That is, they are of many
different kinds. If so, they simply cannot be simple.
96. (d) If something warps, it becomes damaged by bending
or curving, often because of the effect of heat or water.
In order to bring it back to as it was, you have to make
it straight. In other words, you have to straighten it.
97. (a) That which is jocose is meant to cause amusement. If
it does not do so, it is dull.
98. (a) If you pamper someone, you pay too much attention
to make him comfortable and happy; you treat him too
kindly. On the other hand, if you do not pay attention
to someone, you neglect him.
99. (d) A good book should not show negligence in editing.
No part of it should be neglected. It should be read
and re-read, with corrections, till it becomes
presentable. A good editor is meticulous about every
word that goes into the book. That is, he does things
very carefully and with great attention to detail.
100. (d) Instantly means “at once, without any delay”. Its
antonym therefore will be slowly. If you are tempted to
say lately, take care! If you have the meaning “with
delay” in mind, note that this meaning is given by the
word late. Lately (also of late) means – in the recent
past, not long ago
101. (a) If something is obvious, it is clearly seen. If it is obscure,
it is hidden.
102. (d) Some women are extraordinary in their beauty. That is,
their beauty surpasses the ordinary level. Not every
beautiful woman can attain that degree of beauty. They
are just plainly beautiful.
103. (c) Computers are now spreading in every part of the world.
Doomsayers believe they are a threat to mankind. So
they wish to check its spread. If you check something
from spreading, you contain it.
104. (c) The ‘No Smoking’ sign prohibits you from smoking at
that place. That is, it does not allow you to smoke. On
the other hand, if someone allows you to smoke, he
permits you to do so.
105. (b) Human beings often show ruthless behaviour towards
animals. Such a behaviour shows a complete lack of
pity and sympathy. Organisations such as the Society
for Prevention of Cruelly to Animals (SCPA) ask you
to be compassionate towards them. That is, they ask
you to show pity and sympathy towards them, to show
understanding for their suffering.
106. (d) Chagrin is a feeling of annoyance or disappointment.
If something happens to your chagrin, you are not
pleased.
107. (d) When a man begets a child, he becomes its father. If
you beget something, you cause it to happen or be
created. On the other hand, if something is stopped in
the process of its creation, it is aborted. We are familiar
with abortion — the deliberate ending of a pregnancy.
108. (c) Mohan leads an austere life. He eats simple food, does
not have furniture, and prefers walking to riding a car.
He thus saves money and sends it to his son. His citydwelling
son lives lavishly on that money. He throws
parties every week, wears the best of designer wear,
and travels mostly by air.
109. (d) Was it appropriate for a man of your calibre to work at
so low a remuneration? I don’t think so. The money
that you got did not suit the talent you had. In other
words, it was unsuitable.
110. (c) That which is wild lacks discipline and control. When
it is brought under control, it becomes tamed.
111. (d) If you are subservient, you do whatever someone
wants you to do. On the other hand, if you are
supercilious, you behave in a scornful way towards
others. You think you are superior to them. So, you
think, they should be at your command, not you at
theirs.
112. (a) Seven men were charged of a murder. Six of them
admitted that they were a party to the murder. In other
words, they confessed their guilt. But the seventh man
denied. He said, “No, I know nothing about the murder.
The charge is totally baseless.
113. (a) Usually, at this time of the year, I would be engaged in
debates and dramas. That is, I used to be actively
involved in them. This year, however, I have my Board
exams. So I am abstaining (keeping away) from them,
114. (a) He must have lost if he stood for the elections. Not to
stand was thus a judicious move. That is, the move
showed good judgement on his part. Had he stood for
the elections, it would have shown a lack of careful
thinking and proper judgement. The move would then
have been imprudent.
115. (d) An uproarious laughter is very noisy. The opposite of
noisy is calm.
116. (c) I helped both Ravi and Santosh equally. Ravi was
grateful. He said to me, “Thank you. Thank you very
much. I will be indebted to you for this support.” On
the other hand, Santosh took the support for granted.
His work being done, Santosh didn’t even look at me.
I can’t even think of any appreciation from him. He
was simply unappreciative of my support.
117. (b) In a highly competitive world, you can’t succeed unless
you toil (work hard). But sloth gets the better of
Avinash; so success eludes him forever. Sloth is
laziness, especially with regard to work.
118. (b) FAO has warned India of the indiscriminate use of
pesticides. That is, farmers are using pesticides without
giving any careful thought or exercising a careful
choice. Now, pesticides are not meant to be sprayed in
every field and without any restrictions. A good user
must carefully select the fields that really need them.
In other words; he should be selective.
119. (a) If you are fickle, you keep changing your mind. That
happens when you are unsure of purpose. When you
