On the basis of the information given, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and then decide which of the suggested course of action logically follow (s) for pursuing. Statement: India’s aviation regulator is considering a change in the way on-time performance of airlines is calculated, to base it on arrivals instead of departures, a move that will benefit passengers whose flights take off belatedly due to weather and other issues. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation is discussing the proposal, which will also make Indian rules on a par with global norms. Courses of action: I. The change would bring respite for passengers and save them from being stuck in an aircraft for long durations in case of fog or extreme weather conditions. II. The airline industry’s response to the proposal has been mixed, with some calling it a good move and others saying airlines should not be penalised for infrastructure constraints that often lead to delays.  III. One of the biggest benefits of the move will be to reduce the temptation of airlines to close the doors and push back to show on-time and then hold passengers on the ground for an extended period.

The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments I, II and III. You have to decide which of the arguments is/are ‘strong’ arguments is/are ‘weak’ arguments and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question. Statement: For users, Facebook's revelation of a data breach that gave attackers access to 50 million accounts raises an important question: What happens next? For the owners of the affected accounts, and of another 40 million that Facebook considered at risk, the first order of business may be a simple one: sign back into the app. Facebook logged everyone out of all 90 million accounts in order to reset digital keys the hackers had stolen - keys normally used to keep users logged in, but which could also give outsiders full control of the compromised accounts.  Which of the following points do not capture the negligence of Facebook in the most appropriate manner? Arguments: I. What Facebook knows so far is that hackers got access to the 50 million accounts by exploiting three distinct bugs in Facebook's code that allowed them to steal those digital keys, technically known as ‘access tokens’. The company says it has fixed the bugs.  II. The hack is the latest setback for Facebook during a tumultuous year of security problems and privacy issues . So far, though, none of these issues have significantly shaken the confidence of the company's 2 billion global users.  III. One of the bugs was more than a year old and affected how the ‘View As’ feature interacted with Facebook's video uploading feature for posting ‘happy birthday’ messages. But it wasn't until mid-September that Facebook noticed an uptick in unusual activity, and not until this week that it learned of the attack.

Modern civilisation is completely dependent on energy, which has therefore to be abundant and also economical. About 85% of the world's energy is supplied by oil, coal and natural gas while nuclear, hydro, wind and solar power and biomass supply the rest. Coal, nuclear and hydro are used primarily to generate electricity while natural gas is widely used for heating. Biomass is used both for heating and cooking. The wind and solar power is the future's hope as they are sustainable energy sources. Oil powers almost all machines that move and that makes oil uniquely versatile. Oil powered airplanes carry 500 people across the widest oceans at nearly the speed of sound. Oil powered machines produce and transport food. Oil powered machines are ubiquitous. Clearly, we live in the age of oil but it is drawing to a close. According to data available if oil production remains constant until it's gone, there is enough to last 42 years. Oil wells will produce less as they become depleted, which will make it impossible to keep production constant. Similarly natural gas and coal will last another 61 years and 133 years respectively. Naturally, as they become scarce, they become expensive, leading to a worldwide energy crisis. If we are to survive on this planet, we have to make a transition to sustainable energy sources. The transition may be willy-nilly or planned - the choice is ours. The dawning era of limited and expensive energy will be very difficult for everyone on earth but will be even more difficult if it is not anticipated. It is of utmost importance that the public and policymakers understand the global energy crisis and act in tandem to ensure that the species 'homo sapiens' does not become extinct. The energy sources of the future are
