Directions for Questions 11-14: Read the passage and answer the questions that
follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Disequilibrium at the interface of water and air is a factor on which the transfer of heat
and water vapor from the ocean to the air depends. The air within about a millimeter
of the water is almost saturated with water vapor and the temperature of the air is
close to that of the surface water. Irrespective of how small these differences might
be, they are crucial, and the disequilibrium is maintained by air near the surface
mixing with air higher up, which is typically appreciably cooler and lower in water
vapor content. The turbulence, which takes its energy from the wind mixes the air. As
the speed of wind increases, so does the turbulence, and consequently the rate
of heat and moisture transfer. We can arrive at a detailed understanding of this
phenomenon after further study. The transfer of momentum from wind to water,
which occurs when waves are formed is an interacting -and complicated phenomenon.
When waves are made by the wind, it transfers important amounts of energy-energy,
which is consequently not available for the production of turbulence.

A. resolve a controversy
B. attempt a description of a phenomenon
C. sketch a theory
D. reinforce certain research findings
E. tabulate various observations
Answer : B

A. I only
B. II only
C. I and II only
D. II and III only
E. I, II, and III
Answer : A
13. According to the author the present knowledge regarding heat and
moisture transfer from the ocean to air as
A. revolutionary
B. inconsequential
C. outdated
D. derivative
E. incomplete
Answer : E
14. According to the given passage, in case the wind was to decrease until
there was no wind at all, which of the following would occur?
A. The air, which is closest to the ocean surface would get saturated
with water vapor.
B. The water would be cooler than the air closest to the ocean surface.
C. There would be a decrease in the amount of moisture in the air
closest to the ocean surface.
D. There would be an increase in the rate of heat and moisture
transfer.
E. The temperature of the air closest to the ocean and that of the air
higher up would be the same.
Answer : A
Directions for Questions 15-20: Read the passage and answer the questions that
follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Roger Rosenblatt's book Black Fiction, manages to alter the approach taken in many
previous studies by making an attempt to apply literary rather than sociopolitical
criteria to its subject. Rosenblatt points out that criticism of Black writing has very
often served as a pretext for an expounding on Black history. The recent work of
Addison Gayle's passes a judgement on the value of Black fiction by clearly political
standards, rating each work according to the ideas of Black identity, which it
propounds.
Though fiction results from political circumstances, its author react not in
ideological ways to those circumstances, and talking about novels and stories
primarily as instruments of ideology circumvents much of the fictional enterprise.
Affinities and connections are revealed in the works of Black fiction in Rosenblatt's
literary analysis; these affinities and connections have been overlooked and ignored
by solely political studies.
The writing of acceptable criticism of Black fiction, however, presumes giving
satisfactory answers to a quite a few questions. The most important of all, is there a
sufficient reason, apart from the racial identity of the authors, for the grouping
together of Black authors? Secondly, what is the distinction of Black fiction from
other modern fiction with which it is largely contemporaneous? In the work
Rosenblatt demonstrates that Black fiction is a distinct body of writing, which has an
identifiable, coherent literary tradition. He highlights recurring concerns and
designs, which are independent of chronology in Black fiction written over the past
eighty years. These concerns and designs are thematic, and they come form the
central fact of the predominant white culture, where the Black characters in the
novel are situated irrespective of whether they attempt to conform to that culture or
they rebel against it.
Rosenblatt's work does leave certain aesthetic questions open. His thematic analysis
allows considerable objectivity; he even clearly states that he does not intend to
judge the merit of the various works yet his reluctance seems misplaced, especially
since an attempt to appraise might have led to interesting results. For example,
certain novels have an appearance of structural diffusion. Is this a defeat, or are the
authors working out of, or attempting to forge, a different kind of aesthetic? Apart
from this, the style of certain Black novels, like Jean Toomer's Cane, verges on
expressionism or surrealism; does this technique provide a counterpoint to the
prevalent theme that portrays the fate against which Black heroes are pitted, a
theme usually conveyed by more naturalistic modes of expressions?
Irrespective of such omissions, what Rosenblatt talks about in his work makes for
an astute and worthwhile study. His book very effectively surveys a variety of
novels, highlighting certain fascinating and little-known works like James Weldon
Johnson's Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man. Black Fiction is tightly
constructed, and levelheaded and penetrating criticism is exemplified in its
forthright and lucid style.
15. The author of the passage raises and objection to criticism of Black fiction like
that by Addison Gayle as it:
A. Highlights only the purely literary aspects of such works
B. Misconceive the ideological content of such fiction
C. Miscalculate the notions of Black identity presented in such fiction
D. Replaces political for literary criteria in evaluating such fiction

identity exhibited in such fiction.

B. Comparing various critical approaches to a subject
C. Talking of the limitations of a particular kind of criticism
D. Recapitulation of the major points in a work of criticism
E. Illustrating the theoretical background of a certain kind of criticism.
Answer : A
17. The author is of the opinion that Black Fiction would have been
improved had Rosenblatt:
A. Undertaken a more careful evaluation of the ideological and
historical aspects of Black Fiction
B. Been more objective in his approach to novels and stories by Black
authors
C. Attempted a more detailed exploration of the recurring themes in
Black fiction throughout its history

literary tradition
