Although there is a great deal of variation within each gender, on the average, men and
women discuss a surprisingly different range of topics. According to some studies, women
and men ranging in age from seventeen to eighty described the range of topics each discussed
with friends of the same sex. Certain topics were common to both men and women; work,
movies, and television proved to be frequent topics for both groups. The differences between
men and women were more striking than the similarities. Female friends spent much more
time discussing personal and domestic subjects, relationship problems, family, health
and reproductive matters, weight, food and clothing. Men, on the other hand, were more
likely to discuss music, current events, sports and business. Women were more likely to
gossip about close friends and family. By contrast, men spent more time gossiping about
sports figures and media personalities. These differences can lead to frustration when men
and women try to converse with one another.

Direction (Q6 - Q7): Read the given passage carefully and answer the question that
follows.
The Stratosphere specifically, the lower Stratosphere has. It seems, been drying out. Water
vaporIs a greenhouse gas, and the cooling effect on the Earth's climate due to this desiccation
may account for a fair bit of the slowdown in the rise of global temperatures seen over the
past ten years. The Stratosphere sits on top of the Troposphere, the lowest densest layer of the
atmosphere.
NEHRU CORPORATE PLACEMENTS AND INDUSTRY RELATIONS

The boundary between the two, the Tropopause, is about 18km above your head. If you are in
the tropics, and a few kilometers lower if you are at higher latitudes (or up a mountain). In the
Troposphere, the air at higher altitudes is in general cooler than the air below it, an unstable
situation in which warm and often moist air below is endlessly buoying up into cooler air
above. The resultant commotion creates clouds, storms and much of the rest of the world's
weather. In the Stratosphere,the air gets warmer at higher altitudes, which provides stability.
The Stratosphere-which extends up to about 55km, where the Mesosphere begins, Is made
even less weather-prone by the absence of water vapor, and thus of the clouds and
precipitation to which it leads. This is because the top of the Troposphere is normally very
cold, causing ascending water vapor to freeze into ice crystals that drift and fall, rather than
continuing up into the Stratosphere.
A little water manages to get past this cold trap. But as Dr Solomon and her colleagues note,
satellite measurements show that rather less has been doing so over the past ten years than
was the case previously. Plugging the changes in water vapor into a climate model that looks
at the way different substances absorb and emit Infrared radiation, they conclude that
between 2000 and 2009 a drop in the Stratospheric water vapor of less than one part per
million slowed the rate of warming at the Earth's surface by about 25%.
Q6) What is the order of layers in the atmosphere starting from the lowermost and
going to the topmost?
A. Tropopause, Troposphere, Mesosphere, Stratosphere
B. Troposphere, Tropopause, Stratosphere, Mesosphere
C. Troposphere, Tropopause, Mesosphere, Stratosphere
D. Troposphere, Stratosphere, Troposphere, Mesosphere

Q7) Choose the correct answer based on the passage.


Why is the situation in the troposphere defined as unstable?
A. Because, unlike the Stratosphere, there is too much water vapour in the Troposphere
B. Because the Troposphere is not directly linked to the Stratosphere, but through the
Tropopause which creates much of the world’s weather
C. Because of the interaction between warm and cool air which is unpredictable in nature and
can lead to storms
D. Because this layer of the atmosphere is very cloudy and can lead to weather related
disruptions
