The GA section includes indirect speech transformation, word-meaning pair selection (permit/enforce vs relax/other options), probability with dice, data-based logical inference from a tobacco-use survey, and triangle-counting from a figure. It also covers eligibility voting inference, graph-to-function matching, passage-based NOT/description selection about cancer metaphors, unit-digit extraction from a product, and shaded-region area using semicircles.","General Aptitude (GA)  \nQ.1 – Q.5 Carry ONE mark Each  \n\n| Q.1 | Rafi told Mary,“I am thinking of watching a film this weekend.”The following reports the above statement in indirect speech:\u003Cbr>Rafi told Mary that he   of watching a film that weekend. |\n| --- | --- |\n|  |  |\n| (A) | thought |\n| (B) | is thinking |\n| (C) | am thinking |\n| (D) | was thinking |\n|  |  |\n\n\n| Q.2 | Permit :   : : Enforce : Relax\u003Cbr>(By word meaning) |\n| --- | --- |\n|  |  |\n| (A) | Allow |\n| (B) | Forbid |\n| (C) | License |\n| (D) | Reinforce |\n|  |  |\n\n\n| Q.3 | Given a fair six-faced dice where the faces are labelled ‘1’,‘2’,‘3’,‘4’,‘5’, and ‘6’, what is the probability of getting a ‘1’ on the first roll of the dice and a ‘4’ on the second roll? |\n| --- | --- |\n|  |  |\n| (A) |  1 \u003Cbr>36 |\n| (B) | 1 6 |\n| (C) | 5 6 |\n| (D) | 1 3 |\n|  |  |\n\n\n| Q.4 | A recent survey shows that 65% of tobacco users were advised to stop consuming tobacco.

It is a disease of overproduction, of sudden growth, a growth that is unstoppable, tipped into the abyss of no control. Modern cell biology encourages us to imagine the cell as a molecular machine. Cancer is that machine unable to quench its intial command (to grow) and thus transform into an indestructible, self-propelled automaton.\u003Cbr>[Adapted from The Emperor of All Maladies by Siddhartha Mukherjee] |\n| --- | --- |\n|  |  |\n| (A) | It is a reflection of why cancer seems so modern to most ofus. |\n| (B) | It tells us that modern cell biology uses and promotes metaphors of machinery. |\n| (C) | Modern cell biology encourages metaphors of machinery, and cancer is often imagined as a machine. |\n| (D) | Modern cell biology never uses figurative language, such as metaphors, to describe or explain anything. |\n|  |  |\n\n\n| Q.9 | The digit in the unit’s place of th","cbCaijifeprlZvEL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijifeprlZvEL","pdf",590747,2,1,41,"English","en",105,"# General Aptitude (GA)\n## Q.1–Q.5\n## Q.6–Q.10\n# Reasoning and Comprehension – B1\n## XH-B1: Q.11–Q.17","[{\"question\":\"What topic does the GA section primarily test in Q.1–Q.5?\",\"answer\":\"It tests language skills (indirect speech) in Q.1, vocabulary/word meanings in Q.2, probability in Q.3, logical inference from a survey in Q.4, and geometry (triangle counting) in Q.5.\"},{\"question\":\"How is Q.4 answered using the given tobacco survey passage?\",\"answer\":\"By selecting the option that can be logically inferred with certainty from the stated percentages and counts, without assuming any extra information.\"},{\"question\":\"What kinds of skills are covered in the Reasoning and Comprehension B1 section starting from Q.11?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on vocabulary/word choice for describing ideas (Q.11) and grammar/preposition selection (Q.12) in the shown questions.\"}]","GATE QUESTION PAPER 2023..pdf -
