One is the denial of the other.

1) (a) and (b)

(a) All women are equal to men

(b) Some women are equal to men

Both the statements are positive and in agreement to each other.

2) (a) and (d)

(a) All women are equal to men

(d) No women are equal to men

If ‘a’ is true, then ‘d’ is false and vice-versa.

So, one is the denial of the other.

(c) Some women are not equal to men

(d) No women are equal to men

Both the statements are negative and in agreement to each other.

4) (a) and (c)

(a) All women are equal to men

(c) Some women are not equal to men

If ‘a’ is true, then ‘c’ is false and vice-versa.

So, one is the denial of the other.

Hence, ‘(a) and (c) & (a) and (d)’ is the correct answer.

In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ the passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/ passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1.  Women CEOs face more negative backlash over ethics violations compared to male leaders. P. Thus men are considered more culpable in business failings, and that women are more nurturing than men, which makes them more at fault in actions that harm or disappoint others. Q. The findings expose some of society’s most rigidly ingrained stereotypes — that men are more competent than women. R. By contrast, the study also found a reverse gender bias in the public’s perception of business leadership: women leaders faced less flack for failures of competence than men. S. The findings are part of a broader slew of recent research focused both on evaluating the performance of male versus female business leaders (women tend to come out on top), as well as the public perception of male leaders v/s female leaders. 6. Perhaps, slowly, we’re realizing men should be as responsible for ethical conduct as women — which means we may not be far off from considering women just as competent as men.

A passage is given with five questions following it. Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given fouralternatives. Just as space permeates everything in the universe, love permeates every part, every aspect of creation. If there is one answer to the question, “How and why doesthis world exist?” the answer, in one word, is Love. Rather, the answer is Pure Love, since the word love has lost its meaning. Your very existence is an expression of pure unconditional love of the Source (you may call it Consciousness, Creator, God, Divine Self). This is the truth of your being.True love transcends both love and hatred. It is unconditional, unquestioning, boundless, unchanging love. It is overflowing love of the Source for the Source throughall of creation. True love is way beyond the personalized love that two or more individuals assert on one another. Personalized love, though apparently selfless, is rooted in desiresand conditional satisfaction. We have been brought up in a society that judges love based on conditions. We have been made to believe that we can receive love only when we fit into peoplesexpectations. If we are not good enough, we will be deprived of love. These beliefs have influenced the collective psyche of families, groups, communities, and societies since generations to such an extent that love has been reduced tofear of denial. We need to shift from the paradigm of false conditional love to the essence of pure unconditional love . The experience of true love comes with surrender of the false I, in letting go of the feeling of separateness. Without this sacrifice, it is not possible to attain divinelove. When this separate I is discarded, you embrace everything in oneness and catch a glimpse of pure love. True love can be experienced only through giving, not by demanding. People who exist in your life are not here to love you. They are here to remind you that you arethe Source of Love. By knowing that you are the Source of love, you can love yourself, instead of waiting to receive love from the world. Ask yourself, “Why do I need an agent to love myself?” Waiting for the world to love you, is like hiring an agent to love yourself! It is time for you to honor yourself as the Source of love. You have undertaken this human journey to realize and express the boundless love that you truly are. According to the passage, which of the following statement is not TRUE?
