Question(1-5) Read the passage and answer the question
Many folk cures which have been around for centuries may be more therapeutic than previously suspected. A case
in point is that of penicillin. Alexander Fleming did not just randomly choose cheese molds to study when he
discovered this very important bacteria-killing substance. Moldy cheese was frequently given to patients as a
remedy for illness at one time. Fleming just isolated what was about the cheese which cured the patients.

In parts of South America, a powder obtained from grinding sugar cane is used for healing infections in wounds
and ulcers. This usage may date back to pre-Colombian times. Experiments carried out on several hundred
patients indicate that ordinary sugar in high concentrations is lethal to bacteria. Its suction effect eliminates dead
cells, and it generates a glasslike layer which protects the wound and ensures healing.

Another example of folk medicine which scientists are investigating is that of Arab fishermen who rub their
wounds with a venomous catfish to quicken healing. This catfish excretes a gellike slime which scientists have
found to contain antibiotics, a coagulant that helps close injured blood vessels, anti-inflammatory agents, and a
chemical that directs production of a gluelike material that aids healing.

It is hoped that by documenting these folk remedies and experimenting to see if results are indeed beneficial, an
analysis of the substances can be made, and synthetic substances can be developed for human consumption.

Directions (20-24): Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
Nature is like business. Business sense dictates that we guard our capital and live from the interest. Nature's
capital is the enormous diversity of living things. Without it, we cannot feed ourselves, cure ourselves of illness or
provide industry with the raw materials of wealth creation. Professor Edward Wilson, of Harvard University says,
"The folly our descendants are least likely to forgive us is the ongoing loss of genetic and species diversity. This will
take millions of years to correct."
Only 150 plant species have ever been widely cultivated. Yet over 75,000 edible plants are known in the wild. In a
hungry world, with a population growing by 90 million each year, so much wasted potential is tragic. Medicines
from the wild are worth around 40 billion dollars a year. Over 5000 species are known to yield chemical with
cancer fighting potential Scientists currently estimate that the total number of species in the world is between 10-
30 million with only around 1.4 million identified.
The web of life is torn when mankind exploits natural resources in short-sighted ways. The trade in tropical
hardwoods can destroy whole forests to extract just a few commercially attractive specimens. Bad agricultural
practice triggers 24 billion tonnes of top soil erosion a year losing the equivalent of 9 million tonnes of grain
output. Cutting this kind of unsuitable exploitation and instituting "sustainable utilisation" will help turn the
environmental crisis around.

20. why does the author compare 'nature' to business?

 Because of the capital depletion in nature and business
 Because of the similarity with which one should use both
 Because of the same interest level yield
 Because of the diversity of the various capital inputs
21. "The folly our descendants are least likely to forgive us." what is the business equivalent of the folly
the author is referring to ?
 Reducing the profit margin
 Not pumping some money out of profits into the business
 Eroding the capital lease of the business
 Putting interest on capital back into the business
22. which of the following statements is false in context of the given passage?
 The diversity of plant life is essential for human existence
 scientists Know the usefulness of most plant species
 Chemicals for cancer treatment are available from plants
 There are around ten times the plant species undiscovered as compared to the discovered ones
23. which of the following correctly reflects the opinion on the author to take care of hunger in the
world?
 Increase the number of edible plants being cultivated.
 Increase cultivation of the 150 species presently under cultivation
 Increase the cultivation of medical plants.
 Increase the potential of the uncultivated edible plants.
24. which of the following is mentioned as the immediate cause for the destruction of plant species?
 Soil erosion
 Destruction of habitat
 Cultivation
 Agricultural practices

(15-18) Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer from the alternatives.
From the 197 million square miles, which make up the surface of the globe, 71 per cent is covered by the
interconnecting bodies of marine water; the Pacific Ocean alone covers half the Earth and averages near 14,000
feet in depth. The portions which rise above sea level are the continents – Eurasia, Africa; North America, South
America, Australia, and Antarctica. The submerged borders of the continental masses are the continental shelves,
beyond which lie the deep – sea basins.

The ocean are deepest not in the center but in some elongated furrows, or long narrow troughs, called deeps.
These profound troughs have a peripheral arrangement, notably around the borders of the pacific and Indian
oceans. The position of the deeps, like the highest mountains, are of recent origin, since otherwise they would
have been filled with waste from the lands. This is further strengthened by the observation that the deeps are quite
often, where world-shaking earthquakes occur. To cite an example, the "tidal wave" that in April, 1946, caused
widespread destruction along Pacific coasts resulted from a strong earthquake on the floor of the Aleutian Deep.

The topography of the ocean floors is none too well known, since in great areas the available soundings are
hundreds or even thousands of miles apart. However, the floor of the Atlantic is becoming fairly well known as a
result of special surveys since 1920. A broad, well-defined ridge – the Mid – Atlantic ridge – runs north and south
between Africa and the two Americas and numerous other major irregularities diversify the Atlantic floor. Closely
spaced soundings show that many parts of the oceanic floors are as rugged as mountainous regions of the
continents. Use of the recently perfected method of submarine topography. During world war II great strides were
made in mapping submarine surfaces, particularly in many parts of the vast Pacific basin.

Most of the continents stand on an average of 2870 feet above sea level. North America averages 2300 feet;
Europe averages only 1150 feet; and Asia, the highest of the larger continental subdivisions, averages 3200 feet.
Mount Everest, which is the highest point in the globe, is 29,000 feet above the sea; and as the greatest known
depth in the sea is over 35,000 feet, the maximum relief (that is, the difference in altitude between the lowest and
highest points) exceeds 64,000 feet, or exceeds 12 miles. The continental masses and the deep-sea basins are
relief features of the first order; the deeps, ridges, and volcanic cones that diversify the sea floor, as well as the
plains, plateaus, and mountains of the continents, are relief features of the second order. The lands are unendingly
subject to a complex of activities summarized in the term erosion, which first sculptures them in great detail and
then tends to reduce them ultimately to sea level. The modeling of the landscape by weather, running water, and
other agents is apparent to the keenly observant eye and causes thinking people to speculate on what must be the
final result of the ceaseless wearing down of the lands. Much before there was any recognizable science as
geology, Shakespeare wrote "the revolution of the times makes mountains level."

(1-4) Read the passage and answer the question
Birds have evolved many physical attributes that contribute to their flying ability. Wings are important for
adjustable, large hearts and light bones play critical roles. To fly, birds, like airplanes, move air across
their wings. Wings are enlarged so that the air above the wing is forced to move faster than air below the
wing. This creates higher pressure under the wings, called lift, which pushes the bird up. Different wing
types evolved for different ways of flying. Prolonged flight requires long wings and an ability to soar.
Other birds need superior measurability. Finches and … have short, broad wings. Faster birds like hawks,
have built-in spoilers that reduce turbulence while flying. This shows a steeper angle of attack without
stalling. Tails have evolved for specialized use. The tails act like a rudder helping birds steer. Birds brake
by speeding out their tails as they land. This adaptation allows them to make sudden controlled steps on
branches or on prey. Flight takes muscle strength. Birds have specialized hearts that beat much faster
than the human heart and provide necessary oxygen to the muscles. The breast muscle accounts for 15
percent of the bird’s body weight. On pigeons, it accounts for a third of their total body weight. Birds carry
no excessive baggage. The have hollow feathers and hollow bones with struts inside to maintain
strength. Birds fly to find prey, escape predators and attracts mates in other words to survive.

23. The price of lunch for 15 people was Tk 207.00 including 15% service charges. What was the
average price of lunch per person excluding the service charge?
 Tk 11.73
 Tk 12.00
 Tk 13.80
 Tk 15.87
Solution:
Including 15% service charge,
If price is 115, real price is 100 tk
If price is 1, real price is 100/115 tk
If price is 207, real price is (100×207)/115 = 180 tk
So, total price excluding service charge = 180 tk
So, average price = 180/15 = 12 tk

Solution:
82x+1 = 23x+6
Or, 23(2x+1) = 23x+6
Or, 3(2x+1) = 3x+6
Or, 6x+3 = 3x+6
Or, x = 1
26. An item was sold at 6% profit. If the cost was 4% less and the selling price was Tk 4 more,
the trader would have made a profit of 12.5%. What was the cost of the item?
 Tk 180
 Tk 200
 Tk 250
 Tk 275
Solution:
At 6% profit, selling price = 106
At 4% less,=96 tk, and earn 12.5% profit
so, selling price =96 + 96×12.5%= 108
So at 4% less excess profit is = 108-106=2
When earing 2 tk more the cost of the item is 100 tk
When earing 1 tk more the cost of the item is 100/2 tk
When earing 4 tk more the cost of the item is (100×4)/2 = 200 tk

24. A sum of money is to be distributed among A, B, C, D in the 43. A proportion of 5:2:4:3. If

 Tk. 500
 Tk. 1500
 Tk. 1000
 Tk. 2000
Let,
Total Taka = x
C got = 4x/14
D got = 3x/14
ATQ, Sum of proportion = 5+2+4+3 = 14
4x/14 = 3x/14 + 1000
Or, 4x/14 = (3x + 14000) / 14
Or, 4x = 3x + 14000
Or, x= 14000
So, B got = 2x/14 = 2×14000/14
=2000

Or, C = B/2
Again,
A= B+2
ATQ,
A+B+C = 27
Or, B+2+B+B/2 = 27
Or, 2B+4++2B+B = 54
Or, 5B = 50
Or, B= 10

resulting area is what percent of the original data.
 90%
 100%
 93.75%
 1.25%
Let,
Width = 100 and length = 100
So, Area = 100 × 100 = 10000
After increase and decrease of width and length,
Width = 125, and length = 75
So, new area = 75 × 125 = 9375
% = (9375 × 100) / 10000 = 93.75

54. In a mixture 60 litres, the ratio of milk and water 2:1. If this ratio is to be 1:2, then
estimate the quantity of water in litre to be further added in the mixture.
Quantity of milk = (60 × 2/3) litres = 40 litres
Quantity of water = (60-40)litres = 20 litres
New ration = 1:2
Let,
X litres of water to be added.
ATQ,
{40/(20+x)} = ½
Or, 20+x = 80
Or, x=60
Quantity of water to be added = 60 litres.
