As you want important question for the placement exam here i am providing the same to you

Questions are based on the following passage.

"I want to criticize the social system, and to show it at work, at its most intense." Virginia Woolf's provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs. Dalloway has regularly been ignored by the critics, since it highlights an aspect of her literary interests very different from the traditional picture of the "poetic" novelist concerned with examining states of reverie and vision and with following the intricate pathways of individual consciousness. But Virginia Woolf was are ballistic as well as a poetic novelist satirist and social critic as well as a visionary: literary critics' cavalier dismissal of Woolf's social vision will not withstand scrutiny. In her novels, Woolf is deeply engaged by the questions of how individuals are shaped (or deformed) by their social Environments, how historical forces impinge on people's lives, how class, wealth, and gender help to determine people's fates. Most of her novels are rooted in a realistically rendered social setting and in a precise historical time. Woolf's focus on society has not been generally recognized because of her intense antipathy to propaganda in art. The pictures of reformers in her novels are usually satiric or sharply critical. Even when Woolf is fundamentally sympathetic to their causes, she portray people anxious to reform their society and possessed of a message or program as arrogant or dishonest, unaware of how their political ideas serve their own psychological needs own psychological needs. (Her Writer's Diary notes: "the only honest people are the artists," whereas "these social reformers and philanthropists...harbor...discreditable desires under the disguise of loving their kind....") Woolf detested what she called "preaching" in fiction ,too, and criticized novelist D.H.Lawrence (among others) for working by this method. Woolf's own social criticism is expressed in the language of observation rather than in direct commentary, since for her, fiction is a contemplative, not an active art. She describes phenomena and provides materials for a judgment about society and social issues; it is the reader's work to put the observation together and understand the coherent point of view behind them. As a moralist, Woolf works by indirection, subtly undermining officially accepted mores, mocking, suggesting, calling into question, rather than asserting, advocating, bearing witness: hers is the satirist's art .Woolf's literary models were acute social observers like Checkhov and Chaucer. As she put it in The Common Reader. "It is safe to say that not a single law has been framed or one stone set upon another because of anything Chaucer said or wrote; and yet, as we read him, we are absorbing morality at every pore." Like Chaucer, Woolf chose to understand as well as to judge, to know her society root and branch-decision crucial in order to produce art rather than polemic.

1. Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the passage?
A. Virginia Woolf: Critic and Commentator on the Twentieth-Century Novel
B. Trends in Contemporary Reform Movements as a Key to Understanding Virginia Woolf's Novels
C. Society as Allegory for the Individual in the Novels of Virginia Woolf
D. Virginia Woolf's Novels: Critical Reflections on the Individual and on Society

2. In the first paragraph of the passage, the author's attitude toward the literary critics mentioned can best be described as?
A. disparaging
B. ironic
C. factious
D. skeptical but resigned

3. It can be inferred from the passage that Woolf chose Chaucer as a literary model because she believed that
A. Chaucer was an honest and forthright author, whereas novelists like D, H, Lawrence did not sincerely wish to change society
B. Chaucer was more concerned with understanding his society than with calling its accepted mores into question
C. Chaucer's writing was greatly, if subtly, effective in influencing the moral attitudes of his readers
D. Her own novels would be more widely read if, like Chaucer, she did not overtly and vehemently criticize contemporary society

4. It can be inferred from the passage that the most probable reason Woolf realistically described the social setting in the majority of her novels was that she?
A. was interested in the effect of a person's social milieu on his or her character and actions
B. needed to be as attentive to detail as possible in her novels in order to support the arguments she advanced in them
C. wanted to show that a painstaking fidelity in the representation of reality did not in any way hamper the artist
D. wished to prevent critics from charging that her novels were written in an ambiguous and inexact style

5. The author implies that a major element of the satirist's art is the satirist's
A. consistent adherence to a position of loft(B) insistence on the helplessness of individuals against the social forces that seek to determine an individual's fate
B. cynical disbelief that visionaries can either enlighten or improve their societies
C. fundamental assumption that some ambiguity must remain in a work of art in order for it to reflect society and social mores accurately
D. refusal to indulge in polemic when presenting social mores to readers for their scrutiny

Questions 6- 8 are based on the following passage.
It is a popular misconception that nuclear fusion power is free of radioactivity; in fact, the deuterium-tritium reaction hat nuclear scientists are currently exploring with such zeal produces both alpha particles and neutrons, (The neutrons are used to produce tritium from a lithium blanket surrounding the reactor.) Another common is conception is that nuclear fusion power is a virtually unlimited source of energy because of the enormous quantity of deuterium in the sea. Actually, its limits are set by the amount of available lithium, which is about as plentiful as uranium in the Earth's crust. Research should certainly continue on controlled nuclear fusion ,but no energy program should be premised on its existence until it has proven practical. For the immediate future, we must continue to use hydroelectric power, nuclear fission, and fossil fuels to meet our energy needs. The energy sources already in major use are in major use for good reason.

6. The primary purpose of the passage is to
A. admonish scientists who have failed to correctly calculate the amount of lithium
B. defend the continued short-term use of fossil fuels as a major energy source
C. caution against uncritical embrace of nuclear fusion power as a major energy source
D. correct the misconception that nuclear fusion power is entirely free of radioactivity

7. The passage provides information that would answer which of the following questions?
A. What is likely to be the principal source of deuterium for nuclear fusion power?
B. How much incidental radiation is produced in the deuterium-tritium fusion reaction?
C. Why are scientists exploring the deuterium-tritium fusion reaction with such zeal?
D. Why must the tritium for nuclear fusion be synthesized from lithium?

8. Which of the following statements concerning nuclear scientists is most directly suggested in the passage
A. Nuclear scientists exploring the decuterium-tritium reaction have overlooked key facts in their eagerness to prove nuclear fusion practical
B. Nuclear scientists may have overestimated the amount of lithium actually available in the Earth's crust.
C. Nuclear scientists have not been entirely dispassionate in their investigation of the deuterium-tritium reaction.
D. Nuclear scientists have insufficiently investigated the lithium-to-tritium reaction in nuclear fusion.
