But man is not destined to vanish. He can be killed, but he cannot be destroyed, because his soul is

deathless and his spirit is irrepressible. Therefore, though the situation seems dark in the context of the

confrontation between the superpowers, the silver lining is provided by amazing phenomenon that the

very nations which have spent incalculable resources and energy for the production of deadly weapons

Some modern anthropologists hold that biological evolution has shaped not only human morphology but

also human behavior. The role those anthropologists ascribe to evolution is not of dictating the details of

human behavior but one of imposing constraints - ways of feeling, thinking, and acting that ''come

naturally'' in archetypal situations in any culture. Our ''frailties'' - emotions and motivs such as rage,

fear, greed, gluttony, joy,lust, love-may be a very mixed assortment quality: we are, as we say, ''in the

grip'' of them. And thus they give us oursense of constraints.

Unhappily, some of those frailties our need for ever-increasing security among them are presently

maladaptive. Yet beneath the overlay of cultural detail, they, too, are said to be biological in direction, and

therefore as natural to us as are our appendixes. We would need to comprehend throughly their adaptive

origins in order to understand how badly they guide us now. And we might then begin to resist their

pressure.

Q. No. : 40

Question

:

The author implies that control to any extent over the ''frailties'' that constrain our

behavior is though to presuppose

A : That those frailties and adaptive are recognized as currently beneficial and adaptive

B : That there is little or no overlay of cultural detail that masks their true nature.

Academy of Professionals for Aptitude Research and Training

Accenture_Practice - Page 17

such control can be learned

D : A full understanding of why those frailties evolved and of how they function now

Answer:

D

Q. No. : 41

Question

: It can be inferred that in his discussion of maladaptive frailties the author assumes that

A : Evolution does not favor the emergence of adaptive characteristics over the emergence of

maladaptive ones

B : Changes in the total human environment can outpace evolutionary change.

C : Any structure or behavior not positively adaptive is regarded as transitory in

evolutionary theory

D : Maladaptive characteristics, once fixed, make the emergence of other maladaptive

characteristics more likely

Answer:

B

Q. No. : 42

Question

: The primary purpose of the passage is to present

A : A position on the foundations of human behavior and on what those foundations imply

B : A theory outlining the parallel development of human morphology and of human behavior

C : A diagnostic test for separating biologically determined behavior patters from culture -

specific detail

D : A practical method for resting the pressures of biologically determined drives.

Q. No. : 43

Question

:

Which of the following most probably provides an appropriate analogy from human

morphology for the ''details'' versus ''constraints'' distinction made in the passage in

relation to human behaviour?

A : The ability of most people to see all the colors of the visible spectrum as against most

peoples inability to name any but the primary colors

B : The ability of even the least fortunate people to show compassion as against people's

inability to mask their feelings completely

C : The greater lung capacity of mountain peoples that helps them live in oxygen-poor air as

against people's inability to fly without special apparatus.

D : The psychological profile of those people who are able to delay gratification as against

people's inability to control their lives completely

The establishment of the third Reich influenced events in American history by starting a chain of events

which culminated in war between Germany and the United States. The complete destruction of

democracy, the persecution of laws, the war on religion, the cruelty and barrbarism of the Nazis and

especially, the plans of Germany and her allies, Italy and Japan, for world conquest caused great

indignation in this country and brought on fear of another world war. While speaking out against Hitler's

atrocities, the American profile generally favored isolationist policies, and neutrality. The neutrality acts

of 1935 and 1936 prohibited trade with any belligerents or loans to them. In 1937 the president was

empowered to declare an arms embargo in wars between nations at his discretion

American opinion began to change somewhat after President Roosevelt's quarantine the aggvessor

speech at Chicago (1937) in which he severely criticized Hitler's policies. Germany's seizure of Austria

and Munich pact for the partition of Czechoslovakia (1938) also around the American people. The

conquest of Czechoslovakia in March 1939 was another rude awakening to the menace of the third

Reich. In August, 1939, came the shock of the Nazi - Soviet pact and in September the attack on Poland

and the outbreak of European war. The United States attempt to maintain neutrality in spite of sympathy

for the democracies arranged against the Third Reich. The Neutrality act of 1939 repeated the arms

embargo and permitted 'cash' and 'carry' exports of arms to belligerent nations. A strong national

defense program was begun. A draft act was passed (1940) to strengthen the military services. A Lend -

Lease Act (1940) authorized the president to sell, exchange or lend materials to any county deemed

necessary by him for the defense of the United States. Help was given to Britain territory in the western

Hemisphere. In August 1941, President Roosevelt and prime minister Churchill met and issued the

Atlantic Charter which proclaimed the kind of a world which should be established after the war. In

December 1941, Japan launched the unprovoked attack on the United States at Pearl harbor, immediately

thereafter Germany declared war on the united states.

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the

passage.

The existence of mammals on the earth can be traced back to at least the Triassic time. The rate of

development was retarded, till evolutional change suddenly accelerated in the oldest Paleocene. This

resulted in an increase in average size, larger mental capacity, and special adaptations for different

modes of life, during the Eocene time. Further improvement was seen during the Oligocene Epoch, with

the appearance of some new lines and extinction of others. The Miocene and Pliocene times are

especially significant as they mark the culmination of various groups and a continued approach toward

modern characters. It is in the Miocene time that the mammals reached their peak with reference to

variety and size.

The ability of the mammals to adapt to various modes of life finds a parallel in the reptiles of the

Mesozoic time, and apart form their greater intelligence, the mammals apparently have not done much

better than the corresponding reptilian forms. Undoubtedly the bat is a better flying animal than the

pterosaur, but at the same time the dolphin and whale are hardly more fish like than the ichthyosaur.

Quite a few of the swift-running mammals inhabiting the plains, like the horse and the antelope, must

Academy of Professionals for Aptitude Research and Training

Accenture_Practice - Page 24

excel any of the dinosaurs. Although the tyrannosaur was a more weighty and robust carnivore than

perhaps any carnivorous mammal, the lion and the tiger, by virtue of their superior brain are far more

efficient and dangerous beasts of prey. It is significant to note that various species of mammals gradually

adapted themselves to various kinds of lifestyles, some took to grazing on the plains and were able to run

swiftly (horse, deer, bison), others started living in rivers and swamps (hippopotamus, beaver), inhabiting

trees (sloth, monkey), burrowing underground (rodent, mole), feeding on flesh (tiger, wolf), swimming in

the water (dolphin, whale, seal), and flying in the air (bat). Human beings on account of their superior

brain have been able to harness mechanical methods to conquer the physical world and adapt to any set

of conditions.

Such adaptation to different conditions leads to a gradual change in form and structure. This is a

biological characteristic of the youthful, plastic stage of a group. It is seen that early in its evolutional

cycle animals possess the capacity for change, but as the animal progresses in its cycle becoming old and

fixed, this capacity for change disappears. The generalized types of organisms retain longest the ability to

make adjustments when required, and it is from them that new, fecund stocks take origin-certainly not

from any specialized end products. With reference to mammals, we see their birth, plastic spread in many

directions, increased specialization, and in some cases, extinction; this is a characteristic of the evolution

of life, which can be seen in the geologic record of life.
