Answer: Option D
Solution:
The passage talks about the advantages in writing by using the new kind ofpen and paper and arrives at a conclusion about the cost of clerical job. We have to show that the new products do not lead to
decrease in cost of clerical job.
None of the choice (a), (c) and (e) has anything about the cost. Hence, none
of them weakens the conclusion. Choice (b) states that the new products can be manufactured and they also last longer. This information strengthens the conclusion. According to choice (d) the procurement and storage costs are very high. This casts a doubt on the conclusion that the cost of clerical job can be decreased by using these new products. Hence, (d) weakens the
conclusion. 4. Choose the correct alternative that will continue the same pattern and

6. Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions:
A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement:
Input: 39 121 48 18 76 112 14 45 63 96
Step I: 14 39 121 48 18 76 112 45 63 96
Step II: 14 39 48 18 76 112 45 63 96 121
Step III: 14 18 39 48 76 112 45 63 96 121
Step IV: 14 18 39 48 76 45 63 96 112 121
Step V: 14 18 39 45 48 76 63 96 112 121
Step VI: 14 18 39 45 48 63 76 96 112 121
This is the final arrangement and step VI is the last step for this input. How many steps will be required for getting the final output for the following input?

Step I: The smallest number becomes first and the remaining numbers shift oneposition rightward. Step II: The largest number among given numbers becomes last and the remaining numbers shift one position leftward. The steps are repeated alternately till all the numbers get arranged in
ascendingorder and that will be that last step for that particular input.
