At this stage, use Statement 4 to get the following figure. Since speech comes before mimicry, storytelling comes after mimicry.

The unused clues at this stage are (B not song): (F not last), (A not speech).

Using them does not give a definite placement for any of A, B or F.

Íåïñå,

12. Data inadequate, since F can be either song or speech. Option (d) is correct.

13. Either A or B. Option (c) is correct.

14. Can be either A or F. Hence, data inadequate. Option (d) is correct.

15. Again could be A or B. Hence, data inadequate. Option (d) is correct.

SET 5 Questions 16 to 18: Basic information:

Six persons A, B, C, D, E & F on six days, Monday to Saturday; six posts — Clerk (C), Officer (O), Technician (T), Manager (M), Supervisor (S) and Sales Executive (SE).

The second paragraph gives the clues directly to fit in the following table:

We also know that the Officerjoined on Wednesday. It can only be Celina (C). Thus, the table will look like:

Thus the answers are:

16. Celina (b)

17. Bobby (c)

18. Friday (b)

SET 6 Questions 19 to 21: The arrangement is:

Hence,

SET 7 Questions 22 to 25: Since Chandan-Bony (C-B) and Abdul-Devdas (A-D) are definitely next to each other in that order (note: C is to the right of B will be represented by C-B when they are facing South), Eram (E) will definitely be in the centre place (as he is not at the end).

This gives us two possible arrangements for the men:

(2) is not possible since Abdul has to be second to Bony’s left.

Thus the arrangement is:

(Where Paro, Queen, Reena, Saifali and Tulika are represented by P, Q, R, S, T respectively)

The answer is:

22. Chandan and Devdas (a)

23. (d)

24. Eram (a)

25. Queen (c)

SET 8 Questions 26 to 29:

From the last sentence, we get that F is also on the left side, so E will be on the right side. D will be on the left side. E does not have a corner office so he must be in the middle. E and F do not face each other and F’s office is further down the corridor, so F occupies the last office on the left side. Office of C and D face each other, so C will have the first office on the right side and D will have the first office on the left side.

The answers are:

26. (c) C’s office is on E’s left.

27. (d) E’s office faces A’s office.

28. (a) Only A is F’s neighbour.

29. (b) He was giving directions to reach B’s office.
