LR Questions in XAT with Answers

Q.3 Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:

How do we choose one discovery over any other? The physician Lewis Thomas made a choice. He bluntly asserts: “The greatest of all the accomplishments of 20th-century science has been the discovery of human ignorance.” The science writer Timothy Ferris agrees: “Our ignorance, of course, has always been with us, and always will be. What is new is our awareness of it, our awakening to its fathomless dimensions, and it is this, more than anything else, that marks the coming of age of our species.” It is an odd, unsettling thought that the culmination of our greatest century of discovery should be the confirmation of our ignorance.

RC Questions in XAT with Answers

Q. 4 & 5: Read the following passage and answer the TWO questions that follow:

But as the behavioral economists like to remind us, we are already prone to all sorts of reductions as a species. It’s not just the scientists. We compress complex reality down into abbreviated heuristics that often work beautifully in everyday life for high-frequency, low-significance decisions. Because we are an unusually clever and self-reflective species, we long ago realized that we needed help overcoming those reductive instincts when it really matters. And so we invented a tool called storytelling. At first, some of our stories were even more reductive than the sciences would prove to be: allegories and parables and morality plays that compressed the flux of real life down to archetypal moral messages. But over time the stories grew more adept at describing the true complexity of lived experience, the whorls and the threadlike pressures. One of the crowning achievements of that growth is the realist novel. That, of course, is the latent implication of Prince Andrei’s question: “innumerable conditions made meaningful only in unpredictable moments” would fare well as a description of both War and Peace and Middlemarch, arguably the two totemic works in the realist canon. What gives the novel the grain of truth lies precisely in the way it doesn’t quite run along the expected grooves, the way it dramatizes all the forces and unpredictable variables that shape the choices humans confront at the most meaningful moments of their lives. When we read those novels—or similarly rich biographies of historical figures—we are not just entertaining ourselves; we are also rehearsing for our own real-world experiences….

Q4. Which of the following is the BEST interpretation regarding reductive instincts?

A. Reductive instincts tell us to reduce every situation to a heuristic.

B. After the invention of storytelling, humans have overcome their reductive instincts.

C. Reductive instincts can help us in handling uncertainty

D. Reductive instincts have to be overcome for survival in the real world

E. Reductive instincts led to compression of complex reality to moral messages.

Q.5. Why would a realist novel consist of “innumerable conditions made meaningful only in unpredictable moments?”

A. To keep the reader engaged till the end of the novel.

B. To bring in as much content as possible without making it seem forced.

C. To showcase unexpected complexity while making it seem relevant in the given context.

D. To show to the reader that realist novel does not work on expected lines.

E. To engage the reader with realism and fantasy at the same time

DM Sample Questions with Answers

Q.1 to 3: Read the following scenario and answer the THREE questions that follow:

Mr. Singh lived in a sprawling housing society. He employed two part-time domestic helps, Vimla and Sharda. Vimla was responsible for cleaning and dusting, while Sharda took care of cooking. Once Sharda fell ill and consequently took leave for three days. When Sharda returned to work, she learned that Mr. Singh’s gold ring, a gift from his mother, was missing. Suspecting theft, Mr. Singh had terminated Vimla. Mr. Singh asked Sharda to take additional responsibility of cleaning the house, along with an offer to double her salary. Sharda accepted the offer as her previous two jobs were lost due to frequent health-related absences. She was struggling to make ends meet; this offer would go a long way to help her.

Next day, while cleaning under the dressing table, Sharda found the gold ring. Overjoyed, Mr. Singh expressed his gratitude by presenting Sharda a reward of one thousand rupees! However, he made no mention of reinstating Vimla.

Q.1. Sharda was contemplating whether she should inform Vimla that she found Mr. Singh’s ring. Which of the following considerations will BEST dissuade Sharda in sharing the information about the ring with Vimla?

A    Mr. Singh will probably terminate Sharda if he gets to know that she has revealed this information. B    Had Vimla done her job properly, she would have found the ring and avoided this incident.

C    Vimla already knows she has not stolen anything, so telling her will not give her any new information.

D     Sharda is not keeping well, and Mr. Singh warned her that her frequent absences could lead to her termination.

E    Whenever Sharda was absent, Vimla used to help her by taking over her responsibilities. XAT Preparation Tips

Q.2. Two months passed, and owing to Sharda’s improved health and dedication, Sharda started working in three more houses. However, Vimla was dismissed from her jobs in two more houses primarily due to the ring incident. News of the discovery of the lost ring had not become public, and Sharda wanted to help Vimla. Sharda is contemplating over possible actions. Which of the following actions, by Sharda, will BEST help Vimla?

A    Confront Mr. Singh about concealing the discovery of the lost ring from the housing society residents.

B     Inform Vimla that the ring has been found and advise her to demand compensation from Mr. Singh for tarnishing her image.

C    Inform as many domestic helps in the housing society as possible that she has found the ring. D    Quit the job at Mr. Singh’s house and ask him to consider offering that job to Vimla.

E    Divulge to Vimla’s employers in the housing society that she has found the ring.

Q.3. The news of the discovery of the lost ring eventually became public. The domestic helps in the society were chagrined by the treatment meted out to Vimla and the fact that the news of the discovery was not made public immediately. They wanted to ensure that they would not get targeted every time if something goes missing. Which of the following policy options will BEST minimize the chance of employers suspecting their domestic workers of theft in the future?

A    The domestic workers will undergo a daily search by the security guards when leaving the society. B    When a domestic worker is terminated on suspicion of theft without proof, they will have to be paid at least one month’s salary in full.

C     The current address and contact details of all domestic workers should be submitted to the housing society.

D     If there is a suspicion of theft, the security guards will first conduct a thorough search of the affected house.

E    When a domestic worker is terminated on suspicion of theft, the employer will have to publicly apologize if the domestic worker can prove their innocence.

XAT Toppers studying at XLRI and other top B-schools share how XAT Mocks helped them to score high in the exam:

“Mocks played a major part in my success. Most of my preparation was based on practicing through mocks and previous year papers.”

Tanish Jain, XAT Topper 99.99%; XLRI PGDM-BM 2023-25

“I believe mocks played a very important role in my final preparation. Especially after covering the syllabus once, I mainly relied on mock for strategizing how to attempt the exam and manage the time”

Nipun Garg, XAT Topper 99.95%; XLRI PGDM-BM 2023-25

To prepare for DM, my recommendation would be to practise previous year papers, as many times as you want, specifically the DM section. Each of us has a unique perspective that might give us different yet valid answers for the questions in DM. Unless this perspective matches with the examiner’s, there is no point in our justifications”

Nandagopal V, XAT Topper 99.99%; XLRI PGDM-BM 2023-25

“The past year papers were the best source for preparation for the exam. I tried to deduce a logically why the given answer was correct. I also relied on few of my friends to discuss the given case studies to gain a different perspective”

Nipun Garg, XAT Topper 99.95%; XLRI PGDM-BM 2023-25

“My major preparation strategy for this section was to solve a set of diverse questions covering all major domains every day to retain concepts in my mind. Though one thing I did was that in final exam I attempted the questions of topics I was most comfortable in and rest I attempted only after I had solved everything else”

Harsh Gupta, XAT Topper 99.99%; XLRI PGDM-BM 2023-25
