What are Synonyms?

or ne r.i

When two pair of words mean exactly same in their meaning or nearly same or similar are termed as Synonyms. Thereby a single word can carry many synonyms. For example; Simple, Smooth, Easy are Synonyms of each other. The formations of synonyms changes as per the changing form, let it be either verb, adjective, adverb, preposition etc. On can understand better with the help of examples.

Adjective: Beautiful and Charming

pl

Preposition: On and Upon

oy e

Adverb: Easily and Comfortably

es c

Verb: Walk and Stroll

.e

m

Given below are a few handful tips which shall be helpful to you to solve synonyms.

Tips & Tricks to solve Synonyms correctly in exam:

w

1. If one does not know the exact meaning of the word, try understanding it in the context of the paragraph. 2. In case the meaning of the word is not clear, going through all the available options can certainly be considered as a good idea. By doing so, one can start getting idea about the given question & start negating the available options one after the other. 3. Sometimes it so happens that a particular word sounds more like a tongue twister, so try & break it into meaningful parts. Chances are there that the full word might start making more sense in this way. 4. One of the effective ways of knowing & scoring well in this section is to keep a regular tab & enough involvement of reading synonyms & making one‘s own list. Revising the list regularly helps one in remembering the synonyms more often.


4


5. While replacing a particular word in sentence, using its synonym, please see to it that the context does not change nor the whole meaning of the sentence. Example: What is the synonym of Philanthropy? a) injury b) misappropriate c) charity d) endaemonism

nf o

e) cling

or ne r.i

The correct answer is option c) charity.

Moving on to Antonyms. Let us understand what do we mean by saying Antonyms. What are Antonyms?

es c

Antonyms are the words, which mean opposite to the given word. Example: Antonym of Benevolent is Malevolent or Unkind.

oy e

Given below are a few types of antonyms for better understanding of the students. Types of Antonyms:

m

pl

1. Gradable Antonyms: Both the words lie in a continuous spectrum. eg: hard and soft.

w w

.e

2. Complementary Antonyms: Over here, both the words do not lie in a continuous spectrum. eg: push and pull

w

3. Relational Antonyms: Few kinds of antonyms are the ones, who make sense only when they are read together. eg: teacher and pupil In context of the examination, antonyms are being asked directly & at times based on the paragraph. Tips & Tricks to solve antonyms shall remain same as that of synonyms. Let us take a look at the following passage for better understanding: The railroad was not the first institution to impose regularity on society, or to draw attention to the importance of precise timekeeping. For as long as merchants have set out their wares at day break & communal festivities have been celebrated, people have been in rough agreement with their neighbours as to the time of day. The value of this tradition is today more apparent than ever. Were it not for public acceptance of a single yardstick of time, social life would be unbearably chaotic: the massive daily transfers of goods, services, information, would proceed in fits & starts the very fabric of modern society would begin to unravel.

Question: In the above passage find out the antonym for the word stated in bold. a) lawless b) untidy c) jumbled d) calm The answer to the above question is d) calm.

or ne r.i

Thus a regular study & revisions of both synonyms & antonyms can give an answer to your long lasting question on how to crack synonyms & antonyms questions in exams. Keep in mind the above tips & techniques for better performance. Send us your feedback for the same. Good Luck

Some Other Techniques for Solving Synonyms and Antonyms Questions

This part of the aptitude carries 8 marks in HCL and Infosys its like half of the verbal is synonyms and antonyms. So a little concentration should be provided to this area. Most of the words used are GRE high frequency words and if not they are going to new words. For early preparation lets say you have couple of months before Infosys or HCL its better you read the editorial column in the news papers and follow the below stated steps. i. Experiment with synonyms After you see the meaning of a word, look up its usage in the sentence that is usually present in the dictionary. Note down this sentence. Prepare a new sentence after understanding the meaning of the word.

w

w w

ii. Prepare sentences with antonyms So the next step is to find the antonym of the word, this further helps you to store the word well in your mind. Now try to form a sentence or couple of sentences with the antonyms. iii. Compare synonyms and antonyms Use both the synonym (a word having the same or nearly the same meaning as another word) and the antonym to construct sentences using the same context or situation. This procedure enables you to see a word from both sides. If you can follow this strategy, it would definitely solve your problem of learning new words without forgetting their meaning. iv. Important: Use the same context You should always use the same background to write sentences using a new word, its synonyms and antonyms. If you use different circumstances, events or situations to get acquainted with the meaning and the usage of a word, there is a strong possibility that you may get confused. It is the context that will always remind you of how the word is used, and will ensure you don‘t forget the meaning easily. This part will work only if you have a sufficient time to work out. Most of us don’t follow these steps so we need a shortcut.

Shortcuts work, you can’t expect 100% result when your gonna use shortcuts and most of these tricks are tricky too… GRE Techniques can be used: Week before the placements go for the online test link and apply these techniques and see if they are working out for you… These tricks are enough for all companies, but Infosys it won’t work out

oy e

es c

or ne r.i

nf o

Trick 1 Try to put the word in a sentence or a phrase and guess its meaning Trick 2 When you have a word try to guess all its synonyms and from the answers see the exact word which has the same meaning, in the case of antonym the opposite meaning Trick 3 Read all the options, most of us think of time and come up with the answer which has close match to the word. But there is an actual word with the same meaning hidden there. Trick 4 First know the part of the speech the word is used in… For example the word run can be used as a verb but it could also be used as noun like ‗home run‘ so make sure you know the part of speech before answering. Trick 5 Some words are eye catchy, you immediately think its going to be the antonym/synonym, but most of the guesses are not gonna be right so go through the options once again unless your sure of the answer

Analogy 1.a similarity between like features of two things, on which a comparisonmay be based: the analogy between the heart and a pump. 2. similarity or comparability:


19


I see no analogy between your problem and mine. 3. Biology. an analogous relationship. 4. Linguistics. a. the process by which words or phrases are created or reformedaccording to existing patterns in the language, as when shoon wasreformed as shoes, when ize is added to nouns like winter to formverbs, or when a child says foots for feet. b. a form resulting from such a process.

5. Logic. a form of reasoning in which one thing is inferred to be similar toanother thing in a certain respect, on the basis of the known similaritybetween the things in other respects.

Solving Analogies

Solving analogies is a terrific way to sharpen your thinking skills and prepare for standardized tests.

oy e

es c

An analogy is a type of word problem that consists of two word pairs. To solve the analogy you must find a word that correctly completes the second pair. At first glance, the words in an analogy may seem to have nothing to do with each other, but the words are always logically related. The first pair of words has a relationship similar to the second pair of words. To solve the analogy, you need to figure out that relationship. Example:

GRACEFUL : CLUMSY :: HOT : _______

w

w w

.e

m

pl

1. Read the analogy like this: Graceful is to clumsy as hot is to ‗blank.‘ 2. Then ask yourself: What's the relationship between graceful and clumsy? These words have opposite meanings – they are antonyms – so the second pair of words must also be antonyms. 3. Fill in the blank with a word that means the opposite of hot, and you‘ve solved the analogy. The best answer is COLD.

Common Analogy Types The word pairs in an analogy often have one of the following relationships: Antonyms: Words that have opposite meanings, as in HOT : COLD


20


Synonyms: Words that have the same or similar meanings, as inUNHAPPY : SAD

Descriptive: One word describes the other word, as in FAST : CHEETAH

or ne r.i

nf o

Part to whole: One word is a part or piece of the other, as in PIECE : PUZZLE

oy e

es c

Item to category: One word is an item in the category named by the other, as in BASEBALL : SPORTS BALLS

Some analogies will not fit into the categories above.

pl

Example:

m

PUPPY : DOG :: KITTEN : _______

w

w w

.e

1. Read the analogy like this: Puppy is to dog as kitten is to „blank.‟ The first pair of words are not related in any of the ways listed above. 2. Try reading the analogy as a sentence that expresses the relationships between the words: A puppy is a young dog, as a kitten is a young....? 3. To solve this analogy, fill in the blank with a word that best completes this sentence. CATis the best answer.

Some other Three--Step Method ffor Sollviing Anallogiies Probllems The best way to solve analogies problems is to attack them using this universal method. Each of the following steps outlined in our Five-Step Method will work with any analogy you may encounter, regardless of the relationship shared between the word pair. Sttep 1:: Build a strong bridge sentence relating the words in the question pair. The bridge should be as short and


21


w

w w

.e

m

pl

oy e

es c

or ne r.i

nf o

clear as possible. Functtiion Briidge:: 1)) bag : buy 2)) baby : cry 3)) cloud : rain 4)) fork : eat 5)) car : stop In the question to the left, the question pair is SHOVEL : DIG. First, think about a necessary relationship shared between this pair: A shovell iis used tto diig.. Remember, no proper analogies question will put words in the question pair that do not share a diirectt and necessary relationship. For example, you will never see the words MAN :: STRONG used in the question pair, because they do not share a necessary relationship. A man may or may not be strong. Sttep 2:: Now, use this bridge with each answer choice, inserting them in place of the words in the question pair. 1)) A bag iis used tto buy.. Perhaps, but this is not necessarily true. You may use a shopping cart to buy something. Or, you may use money to buy something. So this doesn‘t work. 2)) A baby iis used tto cry.. This doesn‘t work; a baby isn‘t used to do anything. 3)) A clloud iis used tto raiin.. A cloud produces rain, but a cloud isn‘t used to rain. Again, a cloud isn‘t necessarily used to do anything. 4)) A ffork iis used tto eatt.. Here we have a strong relationship. A fork is definitely used to eat. This seems to be the correct answer, but let‘s try the last one just to make sure. 5)) A car iis used tto sttop.. One of the operations of a car is to stop. However, a car is not necessarily used to stop. A car is used to travel, or to transport. So, this doesn‘t work. Therefore, answer choice #4 must be the correct answer. Sttep 3:: If after completing steps 1 and 2 you still have not found an answer pair that works, then it may be necessary to adjust the bridge sentence. Let‘s look back at our original example: Functtiion Briidge:: 1)) bag : buy 2)) baby : cry 3)) cloud : rain 4)) fork : eat 5)) car : stop It may be that our original bridge was not strong enough. Imagine if our bridge was: A shovell may be used tto diig.. Now, it is possible to come up with two correct answers: 1)) A bag may be used tto buy.. 4)) A ffork may be used tto eatt.. Our original bridge wasn‘t strong enough. Therefore, we need to strengthen our bridge by making it more specific, and repeat steps 1 and 2.

Prepositions

Definition A preposition is a word that indicates location (in, near, beside) or some other relationship (about, after, besides) between a noun or pronoun and other parts of the sentence. A preposition isn't a preposition unless it goes with a related noun or pronoun, called the object of the

preposition.


22


Examples: Let's meet before noon. Before is a preposition; noon is its object. We've never met before. There is no object; before is an adverb modifying met. Rule 1. A preposition generally, but not always, goes before its noun or pronoun. One of the undying myths of English grammar is that you may not end a sentence with a preposition. But look at the first example that follows. No one should feel compelled to say, or even write, That is something with which I cannot agree. Just do not use extra prepositions when the meaning is clear without them. Correct: That is something I cannot agree with.

nf o

Correct: Where did you get this? Incorrect: Where did you get this at? Correct: How many of you can I depend on? Correct: Where did he go? Incorrect: Where did he go to?

Rule 2a. The preposition like means "similar to" or "similarly to." It should be followed by an object of the preposition (noun, pronoun, noun phrase), not by a subject and verb. Rule of thumb: Avoid like when a verb is involved. Correct: You look like your mother. That is, you look similar to her. (Mother is the object of the preposition like.) Incorrect: You look like your mother does. (Avoid like with noun + verb.)

Rule 2b. Instead of like, use as, as if, as though, or the way when following a comparison with a subject and verb. Correct: You look the way your mother does. Incorrect: Do like I ask. (No one would say Do similarly to I ask.) Correct: Do as I ask. Incorrect: You look like you're angry. Correct: You look as if you're angry. (OR as though) Some speakers and writers, to avoid embarrassment, use as when they mean like. The following incorrect sentence came from a grammar guide: Incorrect: They are considered as any other English words. Correct: They are considered as any other English words would be. Correct: They are considered to be like any other English words. Remember: like means "similar to" or "similarly to"; as means "in the same manner that." Rule of thumb: Do not use as unless there is a verb involved. Incorrect: I, as most people, try to use good grammar. Correct: I, like most people, try to use good grammar. Correct: I, as most people do, try to use good grammar. NOTE The rule distinguishing like from as, as if, as though, and the way is increasingly ignored, but English purists still insist upon it. Rule 3. The preposition of should never be used in place of the helping verb have. Correct: I should have done it. Incorrect: I should of done it. Rule 4. Follow different with the preposition from. Things differ from other things; avoiddifferent than. Incorrect: You're different than I am. Correct: You're different from me. Rule 5. Use into rather than in to express motion toward something. Use in to tell the location. Correct: I swam in the pool.

Correct: I walked into the house. Correct: I looked into the matter. Incorrect: I dived in the water. Correct: I dived into the water. Incorrect: Throw it in the trash. Correct: Throw it into the trash.

Phrasal Verbs Phrasal verbs are usually two-word phrases consisting of verb + adverb or verb + preposition. Think of them as you would any other English vocabulary. Study them as you come across them, rather than trying to memorize many at once. Use the list below as a reference guide when you

find an expression that you don't recognize. The example sentences will help you understand the meanings. If you think of each phrasal verb as a separate verb with a specific meaning, you will

be able to remember it more easily. Like many other verbs, phrasal verbs often have more than one meaning.

Highest Common Factor (H.C.F.) or Greatest Common Measure (G.C.M.) or Greatest Common Divisor (G.C.D.): The H.C.F. of two or more than two numbers is the greatest number that divides each of them exactly. There are two methods of finding the H.C.F. of a given set of numbers: I.

Factorization Method: Express the each one of the given numbers as the product of prime factors. The product of least powers of common prime factors gives H.C.F.

II.

Division Method: Suppose we have to find the H.C.F. of two given numbers, divide the larger by the smaller one. Now, divide the divisor by the remainder. Repeat the process of dividing the preceding number by the remainder last obtained till zero is obtained as remainder. The last divisor is required H.C.F. Finding the H.C.F. of more than two numbers: Suppose we have to find the H.C.F. of three numbers, then, H.C.F. of [(H.C.F. of any two) and (the third number)] gives the H.C.F. of three given number. Similarly, the H.C.F. of more than three numbers may be obtained.

Divide by a number which divided exactly at least two of the given numbers and carry forward the numbers which are not divisible. Repeat the above process till no two of the numbers are divisible by the same number except 1. The product of the divisors and the undivided numbers is the required L.C.M. of the given numbers.

= 1 tenth = .1;

= 99 hundredths = .99;

100 7 1000

= 1 hundredth = .01; = 7 thousandths = .007, etc.;

Conversion of a Decimal into Vulgar Fraction: Put 1 in the denominator under the decimal point and annex with it as many zeros as is the number of digits after the decimal point. Now, remove the decimal point and reduce the fraction to its lowest terms. Thus, 0.25 =

25 100

=


1 ; 4

2.008 =

2008 1000

=

3.

Annexing Zeros and Removing Decimal Signs: Annexing zeros to the extreme right of a decimal fraction does not change its value. Thus, 0.8 = 0.80 = 0.800, etc. If numerator and denominator of a fraction contain the same number of decimal places, then we remove the decimal sign. Thus,

2.99

=

184 299

Operations on Decimal Fractions: i. Addition and Subtraction of Decimal Fractions: The given numbers are so placed under each other that the decimal points lie in one column. The numbers so arranged can now be added or subtracted in the usual way. ii. Multiplication of a Decimal Fraction By a Power of 10: Shift the decimal point to the right by as many places as is the power of 10.

Multiplication of Decimal Fractions: Multiply the given numbers considering them without decimal point. Now, in the product, the decimal point is marked off to obtain as many places of decimal as is the sum of the number of decimal places in the given numbers.

or ne r.i

1.84

Suppose we have to find the product (.2 x 0.02 x .002).

Now, 2 x 2 x 2 = 8. Sum of decimal places = (1 + 2 + 3) = 6.

Dividing a Decimal Fraction By a Counting Number: Divide the given number without considering the decimal point, by the given counting number. Now, in the quotient, put the decimal point to give as many places of decimal as there are in the dividend.

oy e

.2 x .02 x .002 = .000008

Suppose we have to find the quotient (0.0204 Ã· 17). Now, 204 Ã· 17 = 12.

Dividing a Decimal Fraction By a Decimal Fraction: Multiply both the dividend and the divisor by a suitable power of 10 to make divisor a whole number.

Dividend contains 4 places of decimal. So, 0.0204 Ã· 17 = 0.0012

Comparison of Fractions: Suppose some fractions are to be arranged in ascending or descending order of magnitude, then convert each one of the given fractions in the decimal form, and arrange them accordingly. 3 6 7 , and in descending order. 5 7 9 3 6 7 Now, = 0.6, = 0.857, = 0.777... 5 7 9 6 7 3 Since, 0.857 > 0.777... > 0.6. So, > > . 7 9 5 Let us to arrange the fractions

6.

Recurring Decimal: If in a decimal fraction, a figure or a set of figures is repeated continuously, then such a number is called a recurring decimal.


146


n a recurring decimal, if a single figure is repeated, then it is expressed by putting a dot on it. If a set of figures is repeated, it is expressed by putting a bar on the set. Thus,

1 3

= 0.333... = 0.3;

22 7

= 3.142857142857.... = 3.142857.

Pure Recurring Decimal: A decimal fraction, in which all the figures after the decimal point are repeated, is called a pure recurring decimal. Converting a Pure Recurring Decimal into Vulgar Fraction: Write the repeated figures only once in the numerator and take as many nines in the denominator as is the number of repeating figures. Thus, 0.5 =

Answer: Option D Explanation: Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y. Then, x + y = 15 and x - y = 3

Solving x + y = 15

and

x - y = 3, we get: x = 9, y = 6.

Answer: Option B Explanation: Let the price of a saree and a shirt be Rs. x and Rs. y respectively. Then, 2x + 4y = 1600 .... (i) and x + 6y = 1600 .... (ii)

Divide equation (i) by 2, we get the below equation. => x +

x + 6y = 1600 (-) x + 2y = 800 ---------------4y = 800 ---------------Therefore, y = 200. Now apply value of y in (iii) x + 2 x 200 = 800

=>

x + 400 = 800

Formulas Ratio:

1.

The ratio of two quantities a and b in the same units, is the fraction

and we write it as a : b.

In the ratio a : b, we call a as the first term or antecedent and b, the second term orconsequent. Eg. The ratio 5 : 9 represents

5 9

with antecedent = 5, consequent = 9.

Rule: The multiplication or division of each term of a ratio by the same non-zero number does not affect the ratio. Eg. 4 : 5 = 8 : 10 = 12 : 15. Also, 4 : 6 = 2 : 3. 2.

Proportion: The equality of two ratios is called proportion.


192


If a : b = c : d, we write a : b :: c : d and we say that a, b, c, d are in proportion. Here a and d are called extremes, while b and c are called mean terms. Product of means = Product of extremes. Thus, a : b :: c : d 3.

(b x c) = (a x d).

Fourth Proportional: If a : b = c : d, then d is called the fourth proportional to a, b, c. Third Proportional: a : b = c : d, then c is called the third proportion to a and b.

Mean Proportional: Mean proportional between a and b is ab. Comparison of Ratios: a

We say that (a : b) > (c : d)

The history on Independence Day varies for each country. For example, the US used to consist of 13 colonies ruled by King George III of England. After years of unrest and threat of war, a committee was formed to draft an official Declaration of Independence. John Hancock was the last member to sign the document, and copies were distributed throughout the country the next day. The US proclaimed July 4 as their official Independence Day. Since the early 1800's, Americans have celebrated this important holiday with picnics, fireworks and barbeques.
