1-A
Refer to the line “And the slowdown has yet to affect one
thing. For years, poor countries have been growing faster
than rich ones; so far, they still are….”. Hence statement 1
can be inferred. Statement 3 can be inferred from the comment
on Germany and Japan in the last paragraph. Statement 2 is
too definitive. The term ‘deglobalization’ is becoming popular
and doubts are being raised about the efficacy of globalization
due to the economic slowdown. But this does not mean that
deglobalization is all set to become a reality.
2- D
Option (a) cannot be inferred as “sagging” means “falling”
and not necessarily “fluctuating” in the context. The commodity
prices fell. Option (c) is flawed. Refer to the last paragraph
where no concrete data is given about Taiwan and only a
possibility of shrinking growth- that too in 2009 is indicated.
Option (b) is incorrect as a data analysis of the last line of the
fourth paragraph does not give us any accurate figure
regarding the fall in 2001. Hence option (d) is the answer.
3- C
In the context –prima facie means initial/first hand or ‘at first
sight’. In options (a) and (b) respectively, ‘Sound’ and
‘Foreboding’ do not give the exact sense. We do not know if
the evidence is foolproof/sound as the tone of the subsequent
lines are doubtful. ‘Staid’, mentioned in the passage, can be
connected with traditional and conservative—which are
encompassed in the meaning of ‘sedate’. ‘Sedate’, which
means marked by colourless propriety, which is the opposite
of capriciousness/whimsical/fanciful. ‘Tempestuous’ means
turbulent, therefore it can be negated easily.
