Question 1

Direction: In the following passage, there are blanks, each of which has been numbered. These numbers are printed below the passage and against each, five words are suggested, one of which fits the blank appropriately.  

There is a surreal aspect to the high growth story. The International Monetary Fund expects India to be the fastest (1economy in 2015 and 2016, galloping at 7.5 per cent in both years and (2) China, which is expected to grow at 6.8 per cent and 6.3 per cent respectively. The finance ministry is still more (3), projecting a growth rate of 8-8.5 per cent for 2015-16, against the Reserve Bank of India’s 7.6 per cent. But a host of other indices tell a (4) story. The factory output index numbers in recent months, where sub-5 per cent growth has been the norm, are yet to inspire confidence. The IIP growth for April-May 2015-16 (3 per cent) is worse than the (5) figure for last year (4.6 per cent). While the IIP is not a reliable indicator, the overall trend it projects cannot be dismissed altogether. It is a moot point whether negative growth in the wholesale price index should be viewed as an achievement or a pointer to a demand slack.

Find the appropriate word in each case.
