Para Completion Question 1 Detailed Solution
Statement 4 is irrelevant. The youth have nothing to do with the hurdles faced by the Apple Watch over the the iPad and the iPhone. Statement 3 is too vague. There is no culmination of the idea from the passage. Statement 1 firstly talks about questionable demand, but doesn’t elaborate on what is the reason behind the hurdle which is what is expected to complete the paragraph. Thus the answer is option 2. It talks about what is different about the Apple Watch. People have experienced smart watches before, unlike the concept of iPods and iPhones. Without the novelty factor, Apple is expecting major hurdles in its path.
Para Completion Question 2:
Direction: In this question, a paragraph with a highlighted sentence is given. From the given alternatives, find the sentence that can replace and improve the emboldened part.
Work smarter, not harder: It is one of the more irritating things a book can tell you. However, its relevance becomes undeniable when considering the mechanisms of economic rebound at the macroeconomic level. Growth can stem from increasing labour input (either by recruiting more workers or by making existing employees work longer hours), adding more capital, or enhancing the efficiency with which that labour and capital are utilized—referred to as total factor productivity (TFP). Such improvements might be driven by groundbreaking innovations similar to those made by Thomas Edison. However, the connection between technological advancements and immediate economic recovery is not always clear-cut, as the impact on productivity can vary significantly.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Para Completion Question 2 Detailed Solution
The correct answer is 'Whatever the reason, economic growth did not rebound until productivity perked up'.
Key Points
- The given paragraph emphasizes that only by using all the resources like labour, capital, work, etc. more effectively will growth be attained. Overall, the passage discusses increasing productivity in order to achieve growth.
- The word 'rebound' means 'to recover or increase in amount or value' and the phrase 'perk up' means 'to improve'.
- The sentence to be replaced requires a more precise connection between productivity improvements and economic growth, addressing the original context of how these improvements fuel an economic rebound.
- Sentence 3 fits correctly in the paragraph, as it means that economic growth did not improve until productivity increased.
- Therefore, from the given explanation, option 3 is the correct answer.
Complete Paragraph: Work smarter, not harder: It is one of the more irritating things a book can tell you. However, its relevance becomes undeniable when considering the mechanisms of economic rebound at the macroeconomic level. Growth can stem from increasing labour input (either by recruiting more workers or by making existing employees work longer hours), adding more capital, or enhancing the efficiency with which that labour and capital are utilized—referred to as total factor productivity (TFP). Such improvements might be driven by groundbreaking innovations similar to those made by Thomas Edison. However, the connection between technological advancements and immediate economic recovery is not always clear-cut, as the impact on productivity can vary significantly.
- Option 1, "This shows that at the global level, total factor productivity fell last year, was flat the two years before, and has barely budged since 2007," provides a fact about global total factor productivity but does not suitably replace the highlighted part by emphasizing the relationship between technology, productivity, and economic recovery.
- Option 2, "It could also come from the less-heralded but equally important improvements such as the adoption of the moving conveyor belt to speed up assembly work," presents an example of productivity improvement but doesn't directly address the impact of productivity on economic growth in the context needed.
- Option 4, "A recovery has been underway for a while," is too vague and does not specifically address how productivity improvements lead to economic recovery, nor does it replace the nuanced discussion of technology's role in that improvement.
- Option 5, "No improvement required," is not applicable because the question explicitly asks for a replacement that better fits the context and improves upon the given sentence's ambiguity regarding technology's economic benefits.

Para Completion Question 4 Detailed Solution
The correct answer is 'make use of it to raise awareness'.
Key Points

The worst form of bondage is the bondage of dejection which keeps men hopelessly chained in loss of faith in themselves. We have been repeatedly told, with some justification, that Asia lives in the past. ______________. It was said of Asia that it could never move in the path of progress, its face was so inevitably turned backwards. We accepted this accusation and came to believe it. In India, I know, a large section of our educated community, grown tired of feeling the humiliation of this charge against us, is trying all its resources of self-deception to turn it into a matter of boasting.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Para Completion Question 5 Detailed Solution
- Option 1 does not fit here as it talks about Asia accepting 'the responsibilities of modern civilization', while the sentence following the blank criticises it for having its face turned backwards.
- Option 2 can be easily eliminated as neither of the two sentences (preceding and following the blank) talks about a comparison with the West.
- Option 3 praises Asia for giving up its old habits and it is not consistent with its criticism in the whole passage for not being not able to do that.
- Option 4 does not fit here as it mentions how Asia boasts about its love for humanity and the writer mentions 'boasting' only at the end of the passage.
- Option 5 is the perfect fit here as it explains how Asia is like a rich mausoleum as it takes pride in living in the past.
Hence, option 5 makes the passage complete and coherent.
