Re: Canara Bank Probationary Officers exam previous year question papers

As you want to get the Canara Bank Probationary Officers exam previous year question papers so here it is for you:

Read the following passage carefully and answer all questions given below it.
John Maynard Keynes, the trendiest dead economist of this apocalyptic moment, was the godfather
of government stimulus. Keynes had the radical idea that throwing money at recessions through
aggressive deficit spending would resuscitate flatlined economies- and he wasn’t too particular
about where the money was thrown. In the depths of the Depression, he suggested that the
Treasury could “fill old bottles with banknotes, bury them at suitable depths in disused coal mines”
then sit back and watch a money-mining boom create jobs and prosperity. “It would, indeed, be
more sensible to build houses and the like, “he wrote, but “the above would be better than
nothing.”
As President-elect Barack Obama prepares to throw money at the current downturn-a stimulus
package starting at about $800 billion, plus the second $350 billion chunk of the financial bailoutwe
all really do seem to be Keynesians now. Just about every expert agrees that pumping $1 trillion
into a moribund economy will rev up the ethereal goods-and-services engine that Keynes called
“aggregate demand” and stimulate at least some shortterm activity, even if it is all wasted on
money pits. But Keynes was also right that there would be more sensible ways to spend it. There
would also be less sensible ways to spend it. A trillion dollars’ worth of bad ideas-sprawl-inducing
highways and bridges to nowhere, ethanol plants and pipelines that accelerate global warming, tax
breaks for overleveraged McMansion builders and burdensome new long-term federal entitlementswould
be worse than mere waste. It would be smarter to buy every American an iPod, a set of
Ginsu knives and 600 Subway foot-longs.
It would be smarter still to throw all that money at things we need to do anyway, which is the goal
of Obama’s upcoming American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan. It will include a mix of tax
cuts, aid to beleaguered state and local governments; and spending to address needs ranging from
food stamps to computerized health records to bridge repairs to broadband network to energyefficiency
retrofits, all designed to save or create 3 million to 4 million jobs by the end of 2010.
Obama has said speed is his top priority because the faster Washington injects cash into the
financial bloodstream, the better it stands to help avert a multiyear slump with double-digit
unemployment and deflation. But he also wants to use the stimulus to advance his long-term
priorities : reducing energy use and carbon emissions, cutting middle-class taxes, upgrading
neglected infrastructure, reining in health-care costs and eventually reducing the budget deficits
that exploded under George W. Bush. Obama’s goal is to exploit this crisis in the best sense of the
word to start pursuing his vision of a greener, father, more competitive, more sustainable economy.
Unfortunately, while 21st century Washington has demonstrated an impressive ability to spend
money quickly, it has yet to prove that it can spend money wisely. And the chum of a 1 with 12
zeros is already creating a feeding frenzy for the ages. Lobbyists for shoe companies, zoos, catfish
farmers, mall owners, airlines, public broadcasters, car dealers and everyone else who can afford
their retainers are lining up for a piece of the stimulus. States that embarked on raucous spending
and tax cuttng sprees when they were flush are begging for bailouts now that they’re broke. And
politicians are dusting off their unfunded mobster museums, waterslides and other pet projects for
rebranding as shovel-ready infrastructure investments. As Obama’s aides scramble to assemble
something effective and transformative as well as politically achievable, they acknowledge the
tension between his desires for speed and reform.
