The following sentences form a paragraph. These four parts are numbered as P, Q, R and S. They are not given in their proper order. Read the sentences and choose the alternative that arranges them in correct order. P. Inverse problem refers to the scientific problem of estimating the different causes that led to a particular outcome.  Q. This is in contrast to the forward or the direct problem where scientists try to find the outcome that results from a series of causes. R. A scientist observing a photograph, for instance, would be faced with the inverse problem while trying to figure out the various causal factors that combined to form the final photograph. The inverse problem is applied to understand processes in a wide variety of sciences. S. Scientists trying to understand an observation may at times have to work backwards to estimate the causal factors behind it.

Dyslexia is a perceptual disorder often occurring in persons of normal, or even above average intelligence. The reader is unable to perceive correctly what is on a page. Letters and numbers often appear reversed: "b" seems to be "d","quite" is "quiet" and "from" is "form". The reader tends to leave out letters or words or insert words or letters that are not there. Vowel and consonant sounds may be confused. Many dyslexics are left­handed or able to write with either hand. They often confuse left and right. Learning to speak may also be delayed beyond infancy. The condition seems to be inherited. It may persist into adulthood. However, with early recognition and specialized approaches to teaching reading, most dyslexics can learn to read. Some researchers believe that latent dyslexia may be aggravated by the way reading is taught. The modern whole­word, or look­and­say, method seems to be more of a hindrance to learning for dyslexics than it is for ordinary pupils. The phonetic method of teaching students to learn letters and sound them out appears to achieve better reading results. The problem of words that cannot be sounded out ­ such as rough, laugh or through ­ is not solved by phonetics. These words must simply be memorized. However, for children with dyslexia the problem can be compounded by the failure of parents or teachers to recognize the condition. This can easily lead to emotional problems for dyslexic children, who cannot understand their failure to keep up with their classmates.

Study the information carefully and answer the questions given below: If we arrange the alphabets in the word "RATE" in the English alphabetical order, word "AERT" is formed. Then the third alphabet from the left in this word is "R". similarly, from the word "OPEN" we get - "ENOP" and the third alphabet from the left is "O". From the word "CHEF" we get - "CEFH" the third alphabet from the left "F". From the word "TOY" we get - "OTY" and the third alphabet from the left is "Y". From the word "EAT" we get - "AET" and the third alphabet from the left is "T" If we use all these letters, then a meaningful English word "FORTY" can be formed. Now find which of the following word set DOES NOT give a meaningful word in a similar way.
