Passage Based Conclusions : This is basically drawing inferences from the passage. An inference is the act or process of deriving logical conclusion from premises known or assumed to be true. These passages are based on social, economic, political and technological conditions.
Every student must note that it is very important for them to possess logical skills, comprehension capacity and ability for interpretation. They must be skillful enough to comprehend the full implications of the passage and arrive at the correct answer. It is expected of the students to acquire as much knowledge as possible of phrasal verbs, vocabulary and nature of the English language. In these types of questions, a passage is given on any topic followed by conclusions in the form of statements. A candidate is required to mark out the answer in the following ways
Give answer
The candidate must note that all these conclusions are to be arrived at in the light of what has been discussed in the passage. In the following passages the methodology will be discussed as to how to opt for right option : (a, b, c, d) which a candidate is expected to select for a given conclusion.
These type of questions are used to detect the candidate's ability to decide the situation or draw an inference based on a situation described to him. This topic is an integral part of reasoning.
Example :
Passage : The performance of Indian agriculture is largely dependent on amount of rainfall across the country. A substantive part of the cultivable land is dependent on irrigation which directly related to monsoon. However, agriculture and allied activities account for less on even one-fourth of the total GDP. The component of the manufacturing sector that depends on agriculture for the supply of intermediates is not very high, which suggests that he structure of industrialization has changed over the years. Several components of the tertiary sector that are crucial for the growth of the rest of the economy have grown sizeably, thanks to IT and BPO. So it is less likely that aggregate economic growth will be adversely affected if rainfall is scanty. Yet, a somewhat different picture emerges if we look deeper into the matter. Still, a very significant chunk of the population and work force depends on agriculture for its livelihood. A decline in agriculture reduces per capita food availability, which in turn, pulls down the standard of living.
Question 1 : Manufacturing sector no longer depends on agricultural sector.
Answer : (e) : It is mentioned in the passage that the component of the manufacturing sector that depends on agriculture for the supply of intermediates is not very high. This implies that a part of the manufacturing sector still depends on agriculture. Hence, the given inference is definitely false.
Question 2 : Weak monsoon have adverse effect on GDP even though non-agricultural sector activities may continue to be the same.
Answer : (d) : The sentence 'So it is less likely... if rainfall is scanty' in the passage implies that it is quite probable that a weak monsoon may not have an adverse effect on GDP. Hence, the given inference is probably false.
Directions : Read the following passage and examine the inference given below it in the context of this passage. The performance of Indian agriculture is largely dependent on amount of rainfall across the country. A substantive part of the cultivable land is dependent on irrigation which is directly related to monsoon. However, agriculture and allied activities account for less than even one - fourth of the total GDP. The component of the manufacturing sector that depends on agriculture for the supply of intermediates is not very high, which suggests that the structure of industrialization has changes over the years.Several components of the tertiary sector that are crucial for the growth of the rest of the economy have grown sizeably, thanks to IT and BPO. So it is less likely that aggregate economic growth will be adversely affected if rainfall is scanty. Yet, a somewhat different picture emerges if we look deeper into the matter. Still, a very significant chunk of the population and work force depends on agriculture for its livelihood. A decline in agriculture reduces per capital food availability, which in turn, pulls down the standard of living. The industrialization process had undergone significant changes over past few years. | |||

Directions : Read the following passage and examine the inference given below it in the context of this passage. Ministry of environment and forest has granted environmental clearance to the karkatla open - cast expansion project of the Central Coal Fields Ltd. in Bihar that envisages exploitation of non - cocking coal reserves. The present production level of 0.8 million tonnes is proposed to be expanded to 1.5 million tones per annum at an estimated cost of 67.82 crores under the project. The total land area requirement for the proposed mining activities is about 651 hectares which includes about one - sixth of it as foreign land. Environmental concern gets less priority over the need of the coal. | |||

It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
