Read the followings carefully and answer

Directions (Q. 1-5): Study the following information to
answer the given questions:

Eight people are sitting in two
parallel rows containing four people each, in such a way that there is an equal
distance between adjacent persons. In row-1, P, Q, R and S are seated (but not
necessarily in the same order) and all of them are facing south. In row-2, A,
B, C and D are seated (but not necessarily in the same order) and all of them
are facing north. Therefore, in the given seating arrangement, each member
seated in a row faces another member of the other row. R sits second to the
right of P. A is an immediate neighbour of the person who faces R. Q sits second
to the left of the person who faces A. Only one person sits between B and C. C
does not face P. C does not sit at any of the extreme ends of the line.

(Q. 6-10): Study the following information to answer the given questions.

A word and number arrangement machine when given an input
line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule. The
following is an illustration of input and rearrangement.

Input: over drive
51 98 slow jam 12 66 hit loss 42 72 under

Step I: under 12
over drive 51 98 slow jam 66 hit loss 42 72

Step II: under 12
slow 42 over drive 51 98 jam 66 hit loss 72

Step III: under
12 slow 42 over 51 drive 98 jam 66 hit loss 72

Step IV: under 12
slow 42 over 51 loss 66 drive 98 jam hit 72

Step V: under 12
slow 42 over 51 loss 66 jam 72 drive 98 hit

Step VI: under 12
slow 42 over 51 loss 66 jam 72 hit 98 drive

Step VI is the last step of the rearrangement.

As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in
each of the following questions the appropriate steps for the given input.

Input: follow
mean 60 82 rules 21 77 down wide 42 prime 33 51

6.

2) V

3) VI

4) VII

5) None of these

7.
Which step number would be the following output?

wide 21 rules 33
prime 42 follow mean 60 82 77 down 51

1) II

2) III

3) IV

4) V

5) No such step is possible.

8.
Which of the following is at 8th position from the right in step IV?

1) prime

2) mean

3) 42

4) 51

5) None of these

9.
In step V of the rearrangement, if ‘prime’ is related to ‘21’ and ‘follow’ is
related to ‘42’ in a certain way, which of the following would ‘down’ be related to, following the
same pattern?

1) 51

2) 82

3) follow

4) 42

5) None of these

10.
The
third step of an input is: yet
52 three 69 now 41 low 38 high 29 cool 14

What
will definitely be the input?

1) yet 52 tree 69 low 38 now 41 how 29 cool 14

2) yet 52 tree 69 how 29 low 38 now 41 cool 14

3) yet 52 tree 38 how 69 low 41 now 38 cool 14

4) yet 69 tree 52 how 41 low 38 now 14 cool 29
