16. If 'diamond' is called 'gold', 'gold' is called 'silver', 'silver' is called 'ruby' and 'ruby' is called 'emerald', which is the cheapest jewel ? (যদি 'diamond' ক 'gold' বুলি কোৱা হয়, 'gold' ক 'silver' বুলি কোৱা হয়, 'silver' ক 'ruby' বুলি কোৱা হয় আৰু 'ruby' ক 'emerald' বুলি কোৱা হয়, তেন্তে আটাইতকৈ সস্তীয়া গহনা কোনটো ?)

(A) ruby   (B) silver   (C) diamond   (D) gold

Given Code Words: "diamond" is called "gold", "gold" is called "silver", "silver" is called "ruby", "ruby" is called "emerald"

We know in real life, the order of value (from most to least valuable) typically is:

Diamond > Gold > Silver > Ruby > Emerald

So the cheapest real jewel is: Emerald

But we are told: "Ruby" is called "Emerald",  So, "Ruby" (the word used) actually means Emerald (the cheapest jewel)

17. If 'sky' is 'star', 'star' is 'cloud', 'cloud' is 'earth', 'earth' is 'tree' and 'tree' is 'book', then where do the birds fly ?

(      A)   cloud  (B) sky  (C) star  (D) Data inadequate 

Code Word Mapping: "sky" → star

• "star" → cloud, "cloud" → earth, "earth" → tree, "tree" → book

19-1. Which letter comes immediate after the 12th letter from the right end of the english alphabets ? (প্ৰশ্ন: ইংৰাজী বৰ্ণমালাৰ সোঁফালৰ পৰা ১২তম আখৰৰ ঠিক পিছত কোনটো আখৰ আহে ?)

(A) Ο  (B) N  (C) M  (D) P

Explanation:

•      12th letter from the right end of the alphabet = O


• The letter after O is P

Ans: (D) P

20-2. Having written english alphabets in the reverse order first delete every second letter and then choose the letter which rightly divides the remaining letters into two equal halves. (ইংৰাজী বৰ্ণমালাক ওলোটা ক্ৰমত লিখক। তাৰ পিছত প্ৰতি দ্বিতীয় আখৰ মচি দিয়ক। এতিয়া অৱশিষ্ট আখৰসমূহক দুটা সমান ভাগত বিভক্ত কৰা আখৰটো কোনটো ?)

(A) N  (B) L  (C) P   (D) M

•       Write English alphabets in reverse order: Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B A (26 letters)


•        Delete every second letter: Start deleting every second letter, i.e., keep 1st, delete 2nd, keep 3rd, delete 4th, and so on:


• Kept letters: Z, X, V, T, R, P, N, L, J, H, F, D, B (13 letters remain)

Find the letter that divides the remaining list into two equal halves

Remaining letters: Z X V T R P N L J H F D B → 13 letters

The middle (7th) letter divides this into two equal halves of 6 on each side.

So:

• Left half: Z, X, V, T, R, P


• Middle: N


• Right half: L, J, H, F, D, B

Ans: (A) N

21. Which of the following will come in place of the question mark according to english alphabetical series ? (প্ৰশ্ন: ইংৰাজী বৰ্ণমালাৰ ক্ৰম (Alphabetical Series) অনুসৰি প্ৰশ্নবোধক চিহ্ন (?) ৰ ঠাইত তলৰ কোনটো আহিব?)

EFZ HIX LMU QRQ ?

(A) WXM  (B) UVL   (C) WYL   (D) WXL

Explanation:

EFZ - HIX - LMU - QRQ - ?

• 1st letters: E - H - L - Q - W (+3, +4, +5, +6)


• 2nd letters: F - I - M - R - X (+3, +4, +5, +6)


• 3rd letters: Z - X - U - Q - L (−2, −3, −4, −5)

So the next group is: WXL

Ans: (D) WXL

22. How many meaningful english words can be formed with the letters ICNH using all the letters but each retters only once in each word ? (C, N, H আখৰসমূহ ব্যৱহাৰ কৰি, প্ৰতিটো আখৰ মাত্ৰ এবাৰকৈ ব্যৱহাৰ কৰি, কিমানটা অৰ্থপূৰ্ণ ইংৰাজী শব্দ গঠন কৰিব পাৰি ?)

(A) None  (B) One  (C) Two  (D) Three

The possible combinations of these letters are:

1.     CHIN (a meaningful word)

2.     INCH (a meaningful word)

Ans: (C) Two

The two meaningful words are CHIN and INCH.

23.

(প্ৰশ্ন: ADVICES শব্দটোৰ আখৰসমূহক প্ৰথমে বৰ্ণানুক্ৰমে (Alphabetical Order) সজাওক। তাৰ পিছত গঠিত শব্দটোত প্ৰতিটো স্বৰবৰ্ণ (Vowel)-ক ইংৰাজী বৰ্ণমালাৰ পিছৰ আখৰলৈ আৰু প্ৰতিটো ব্যঞ্জনবৰ্ণ (Consonant)-ক আগৰ আখৰলৈ সলনি কৰক। তেতিয়া বাওঁফালৰ পৰা তৃতীয় আখৰ কোনটো হ'ব ?) 

(A) J  (B) C  (C) D  (D) F

• Arrange the letters of "ADVICES" in alphabetical order


• The letters are: A, D, V, I, C, E, S


• Arranged in alphabetical order: A, C, D, E, I, S, V


•       Change vowels to the next letter and consonants to the previous letter

Vowels: A, E, I

• A - B (next letter)

• I - J (next letter)

Consonants: C, D, S, V

• C - B (previous letter)


• D - C (previous letter)


• S - R (previous letter)


• V - U (previous letter)

Form the new word : After the changes, we have: B, B, C, F, J, R, U
