VERBAL REASOINING

Verbal means ‘pertaining to word’ and ability means ‘power of mind to do things’, so in verbal test questions are stated in the form of words (language). The candidates are supplied with a question paper which contains variegated exercise designed to test their knowledge and intelligence. The purpose of the ‘Verbal Test’ is to evaluate and analyse candidate’s English comprehension and understanding towards the language. These tests can be of various kinds but the questions about sentence completion and analogy testing will be asked randomly. There will be also a question about critical reading (comprehension) that will be asked separately. The brief explanation about these questions will be given on the next pages. This section is consisted of following types of questions:

• Sentence Completion
• Analogy Test
• Critical Reading

SENTENCE COMPLETION

In such type of questions, one or two blanks are given in a sentence, each blank indicates that something has been omitted. Four or five lettered words or sets of words are given below the sentence. The candidate is asked to choose the word or set of words, when inserted in the sentence, bet fits the meaning of candidate is asked to complete the sentence by filling in the blanks with most suitable choice. These questions are designed to determine the candidate’s ability to recognize the following areas:

• Correct Sentence Structure
• Correct Choice of Vocabulary
• Applied Grammar (Rules)

The questions about sentence completion can be related to any of the other areas of study i.e., science, geography, general knowledge, history, literature etc., but the subject matter would not hinder the candidate’s language ability. The knowledge of correct grammar and vocabulary is required to complete the sentence.

In this test, words and their correct use is judged. This test gives a good idea of the memory and the power to apply it at an appropriate time.

In sentence completion questions, you are given a sentence containing one or more blanks. A number of words or pair or words are suggested to fill the blank spaces. You must select the word or pair or words that will best complete the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

In a typical sentence completion question, if any of the answer choices is inserted into the blank spaces, the resulting sentence will be technically correct, but it may not make sense. Usually, more than one choice makes sense, but only one completely carries out the full meaning of the sentence. There is one best answer.

ANALOGY QUESTIONS

The word analogy means “an agreement or correspondence in certain respect between things otherwise different --- a resemblance, of relations , as in the phrase, “knowledge is to the mind, what light is to the eye”: relation in general: likeness: correspondence of a word or a phrase with the genius of a language, as learned from the manner in which its words and phrases are ordinarily formed: almilarity  of derivative or inflectional processed.”

 

Types of Analogy Tests

First Type: The first type is that in which two words which have some relationship with each other are presented. These are followed by another word and a number of choices. One word from the choices is to be picked up to establish the same relation with the third word as the first two have. For example----

(A)    Ice

(B)    Wet

(C)    Warm

(D)   Snow

The correct answer is (C).

Analytical reasoning questions consist of groups of four or five questions. At begging, a short passage followed by a set of conditions is given. Sometimes, graphs and tables are given instead of passage. To understand this type of question, we define some logical terms and their applications with examples.
