Directions (Q. Nos. 41 to45) In each of these questions there are two sets figures. The figures above are problem figures (four figures and one question-marked space) and those below are answer figures indicated by number (1), (2), (3), (4) and (5). A series is established if one of the five answer figures is placed at the “question-marked space”. Question figures form a series if they change from left to right according to some rule. The number of the answer figure which should be placed in the question-marked space is the answer. All the five figures, ie, four problem figures and one answer figure placed in the question-marked space should be considered as forming the series. Study the following question.
Problem Figures
Answer Figures
If we place the answer figures (4) in the question-marked space it makes a series which indicates that one vertical line is added in each figure. So the answer is (4). Note that if we go by only one aspect of ‘number of lines’, answer figure (3) may also fit in. So you have to consider all different aspects.

Directions (Q. Nos. 151 to 165) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words are printed in bold to help you to locate them while answering some of the questions.
The Sun, while going in his daily rounds saw a princess and fell in love with her. Whenever he could slip away from the heavens he would take human form and go down to the princess to spend some time with her. The princess too became quite fond of him and would wait for him to come. One day the Sun decided to send her a blood-red ruby as a token of his love for her. He put the gem in a silk bag, and calling a crow that was flying past, asked the bird to deliver the gem to his beloved. Crows had milky white feathers in those days and it was considered auspicious if a crow came anywhere near you. So, the Sun was pleased that he had found a crow to deliver the gem. As the crow sped through the sky with the silken bag, the aroma of food lured him. Looking down the crow saw that a wedding feast was in progress, and immediately it was distracted from its mission. Food was one thing it could never resist!
Alighting on a tree nearby, it hung the bag on a twig and went off to find some food. While the crow was feasting, a merchant passing by saw the bag on the tree, and knocked it down with a pole. When he opened the bag and saw its contents he almost swooned in joy. Quickly pocketing the ruby, he filled the bag with dry cow dung that was lying there, and then deftly returned the bag to the branch. It was all done so quickly that the crow missed all the action. After having its fill, it flew up to the tree, and picking up the bag took it to the person it was intended for. The princess was in the garden. When the crow gave her the bag, she took it eagerly, knowing that it was from the Sun. But when she saw its contents she reeled back in shock and anger. Believing that it was the Sun’s way of telling her that he did not care for her, she flung the bag away, rushed to her palace, and never came out again. When the Sun learnt of what had happened he was furious. So, great was his anger that when he turned his scorching gaze on the crow, its feathers were burned black. Its feathers have been black ever since. The ruby did not stay with the man who stole it. It fell out of his pocket and rolled into a deep pit. Men have been trying to dig it out ever since. Many precious stones have been found in the process, making Myanmar one of the richest sources of rubies and sapphires, but the ruby that Sun sent to the princess is yet to be found.
