Some content of the file has been given here: 1. Choose the most appropriate word from the options given below to complete the following sentence. Communication and interpersonal skills are_____ important in their own ways. (A) each (B) both (C) all (D) either Answer: (B) 2. Which of the options given below best completes the following sentence? She will feel much better if she ________________. (A) will get some rest (B) gets some rest (C) will be getting some rest (D) is getting some rest Answer: (B) 3. Choose the most appropriate pair of words from the options given below to complete the following sentence. She could not _____ the thought of _________ the election to her bitter rival. (A) bear, loosing (B) bare, loosing (C) bear, losing (D) bare, losing Answer: (C) 4. A regular die has six sides with numbers 1 to 6 marked on its sides. If a very large number of throws show the following frequencies of occurrence: 10.167; 20.167; 30.152; 4 0.166; 50.168; 6 0.180. We call this die (A) irregular (B) biased (C) Gaussian (D) insufficient Answer: (B) Exp: For a very large number of throws, the frequency should be same for unbiased throw. As it not same, then the die is baised. 5.
