The previous years question paper on General Ability Paper – English Section for the examination held by National Defence Academy is as given below:

General Ability Paper – English Section

Spotting Errors

Directions for the following 5 (five) items:


Each item in this section has a sentence with three underlined parts labeled (a), (b) and (c). Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underlined part and indicate your response in the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter i.e., (a) or (b) or (c). If you find no error, your response should be indicated as (d).




Comprehension

Directions for the following 6 (six) items:

In this section, you have two short passages. Read the passages and answer the items that follow. You are required to select your answers based on the contents of the passage and opinion of the author only.

Passage – 1


We had just passed Tenali, where I roused myself in order to hear the name of the station. As I was falling asleep again, a violent jolt shot me into the arms of somebody in the seat opposite. The engine with one wheel broken was lying across the track and beside it was the luggage van, likewise, derailed. Groaning, wheezing, gasping, sputtering in its death agony, the engine was like a fallen horse which, snorting, trembling in every limb, its flanks heaving, its chest laboring, seems incapable of making the smallest effort to struggle on to its legs again.

6. The author had roused himself as he wanted to

(a) get off

(b) meet someone

(c) know the name of the station

(d) keep himself awake

7. The engine stopped because

(a) the driver had stopped it

(b) one of the wheels was broken

(c) there was a…

(d) there was no fuel

8. The engine is compared to a fallen horse because

(a) it was groaning like a horse

(b) it was lying across the track

(c) it could make no effort to stand upright

(d) it had a broken wheel

Passage – 2

I was beginning to tire a little now. I had been cutting steps continuously for two hours, and Tenzing, too, was moving very slowly. As I chipped steps around still another corner, I wondered rather dully just how long we could keep it up. Our original zest had now quite gone and it was turning more into a grim struggle. I then realized that the ridge ahead, instead of still monotonously rising, now dropped sharply away, and far below I could see the North Col and Rongbuk glacier. I looked upwards to see a narrow ridge running up to a snowy summit. A few more whacks of the ice-axe in the firm snow and we stood on top.

9. Which of the following is the most appropriate description of the area in which the narrator had been moving?

(a) A steep rocky slope

(b) A peak with a flight of steps

(c) A high peak covered with snow

(d) A long ridge

10. ‘I had been cutting steps continuously for two hours’ suggests that

(a) the climber was unskilled in the art of making steps

(b) he had to cut the steps out of snow before climbing up which was necessarily a slow process

(c) the slowness was caused by the fact that as soon as he cut the steps they were again covered with snow

(d) he had to work suspended from a ledge

11. ‘It was turning more into a grim struggle’ would mean

(a) that after the long exertion he was feeling so weak that any further climbing meant a hard struggle with the forces of nature

(b) that Tenzing was making the task more difficult

(c) that strong cold wind was pushing him down from above and that he had to struggle with the forces of nature

(d) that he was in a mood to give up ultimately
