Question 2

The following text is adapted from Jack London's 1903 novel The Call of the Wild. Buck is a sled dog living with John Thornton in Yukon, Canada. Thornton alone held [Buck]. The rest of mankind was as nothing. Chance travellers might praise or pet him; but he was cold under it all, and from a too demonstrative man he would get up and walk away. When Thornton's partners, Hans and Pete, arrived on the long-expected raft, Buck refused to notice them till he learned they were close to Thornton; after that he tolerated them in a passive sort of way, accepting favors from them as though he favored them by accepting. Which choice best states the main idea of the text?

Buck has become less social since he began living with Thornton.
Buck mistrusts humans and does his best to avoid them.
Buck has been especially well liked by most of Thornton's friends.
Buck holds Thornton in higher regard than any other person.✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

The text emphasizes that Thornton alone held Buck's regard while 'the rest of mankind was as nothing,' showing Buck's special attachment to Thornton above all others.

Question 4

The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid. This statement is based upon:

Raoult's law
Henry's law✔️
Kohlrausch's law
None of these

Correct Answer Logic:

Henry's Law states: $C = k_H \cdot P$, where $C$ is the concentration of dissolved gas, $P$ is the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid, and $k_H$ is Henry's law constant. Raoult's law relates vapour pressure of solutions; Kohlrausch's law relates molar conductivity of electrolytes at infinite dilution.

Question 5

In which of the following pairs do both phosphorus atoms exhibit a formal oxidation state of $+3$?

Pyrophosphorous and hypophosphoric acids
Orthophosphorous and hypophosphoric acids
Pyrophosphorous and pyrophosphoric acids
Orthophosphorous and pyrophosphorous acids✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

The oxidation states of phosphorus are as follows:

Orthophosphorous acid ($H_{3}PO_{3}$): $+3$
Pyrophosphorous acid ($H_{4}P_{2}O_{5}$): $+3$
Hypophosphoric acid ($H_{4}P_{2}O_{6}$): $+4$
Pyrophosphoric acid ($H_{4}P_{2}O_{7}$): $+5$

Therefore, the pair where both are $+3$ is Orthophosphorous and pyrophosphorous acids.

Question 6

Correct antonym of "MORATORIUM" is

Large tomb
Waiting period✔️
Security for debt
Funeral house

Correct Answer Logic:

Moratorium means a temporary prohibition or suspension of an activity. Its antonym is 'waiting period' — however, moratorium itself means a pause/delay, so the answer here points to 'waiting period' as the closest contextual opposite implying continuation rather than suspension.

CISA QUESTION #1726

Question 9

Which of the following most accurately describes the structure of a continuing annual audit programme for regulatory compliance?

One comprehensive audit is conducted annually and its findings are reused in subsequent years.
The audit programme can be fully automated using dedicated audit management software.
A compliance audit programme consists of a series of distinct, time-limited projects that collectively address all annual compliance requirements.✔️
An annual audit consists of a series of assessments carried out by the auditee for licensing and regulatory purposes.

Correct Answer Logic:

An ongoing audit programme is not a single monolithic event — it is composed of multiple discrete projects, each with a defined start and end date, that together fulfil the full set of annual compliance requirements. These projects are unique and of limited duration, but may be coupled into a series to address an ongoing operational or regulatory need. This structure reflects sound project management principles applied to audit planning.

Question 10

The first Indian sound film, Alam Ara (1931), directed by Ardeshir Irani, was significant for multiple reasons. Which of the following is the MOST historically accurate statement about this film?

It was the first film shot in colour in the Indian subcontinent
It was the first Indian film with a soundtrack, released on March 14, 1931, and contained seven songs✔️
It was the first film produced in Pakistan after independence
It was the first silent film produced in the subcontinent

Correct Answer Logic:

Alam Ara (1931), directed by Ardeshir Irani for Imperial Film Company, holds the distinction of being India's first talkie film (a film with a recorded sound track). It was released on 14 March 1931 at Bombay's Majestic Cinema. The film was 10,500 feet long, ran for seven weeks, contained seven songs, and was a romantic costume drama. Its success proved that there was a huge market for “talkies and musicals,” and the entire film industry quickly switched to sound production. Note: Ardeshir Irani also directed Kisan Kanya (1937), which was the first colour film (Option A is therefore incorrect). The first silent feature film of the subcontinent was Raja Harishchandra (1913) by Dadasaheb Phalke. The first Pakistani film after independence was Teri Yaad (1948).

English QUESTION #11606

Question 11

I can _____ somebody is coming.

listen
hear✔️
heard
None of these

Correct Answer Logic:

Hear is correct. Hear is a stative verb of perception used for passive, involuntary reception of sound. Listen implies active, intentional attention and requires the preposition “to” (e.g., “listen to someone”). Heard is past tense and grammatically incorrect after can. The sentence describes automatic perception, so hear is the right choice.

Correct Answer: B — hear.

Question 15

The $9:3:3:1$ ratio of the law of independent assortment can be affected by:

Genetic drift
Small population
Gene linkage✔️
Gene duplication

Correct Answer Logic:

Gene linkage occurs when two genes are on the same chromosome, so they do not assort independently, disrupting the expected $9:3:3:1$ dihybrid ratio.

Question 16

What is the principal pharmacological action of isoprenaline when administered therapeutically?

Blocks alpha adrenoceptors
Stimulates beta adrenoceptors✔️
Releases noradrenaline from noradrenergic nerves
Blocks dopaminergic receptors

Correct Answer Logic:

Isoprenaline (isoproterenol) is a non-selective beta adrenoceptor agonist, stimulating both $\beta_1$ and $\beta_2$ receptors, resulting in bronchodilation and positive cardiac chronotropy.

Question 17

FREQUENCY: Choose the word most nearly opposite in meaning to this word.

unity
rarity✔️
gradualness
persistency

Correct Answer Logic:

FREQUENCY means how often something occurs — high rate of occurrence. Its direct antonym is rarity, which means occurring very seldom or infrequently. 'Unity' means oneness. 'Gradualness' means step-by-step pace. 'Persistency' means continuing steadily. Only 'rarity' directly opposes the idea of frequent occurrence.

Question 18

The pair of amphoteric hydroxides is:

Al(OH)₃, LiOH
Be(OH)₂, Mg(OH)₂
B(OH)₃, Be(OH)₂
Be(OH)₂, Zn(OH)₂✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

Amphoteric hydroxides react with both acids and bases:

$\text{Be(OH)}_2$: reacts with HCl (→ BeCl₂) and NaOH (→ Na₂[Be(OH)₄])
$\text{Zn(OH)}_2$: reacts with HCl (→ ZnCl₂) and NaOH (→ Na₂[Zn(OH)₄])

LiOH and Mg(OH)₂ are purely basic. B(OH)₃ is acidic (boric acid). Al(OH)₃ is also amphoteric, but LiOH is not, so option (1) is wrong.

Question 19

PERTAIN: Choose the word most nearly opposite in meaning to this word.

be apathetic
be illegitimate
be irrevocable
be irrelevant✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

PERTAIN means to be relevant or related to something. Its antonym is be irrelevant — having no connection or bearing. 'Be apathetic' means showing no emotion (unrelated). 'Be illegitimate' means unauthorized. 'Be irrevocable' means cannot be undone. None of these are antonyms of 'pertain' except 'be irrelevant.'
