Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives.The Russian doping scandal continues to cast a long shadow over international sport as the 2018 Winter Olympics begin in Pyeong Chang, South Korea, on February9. In December, the International Olympic Committee banned Russia from competing in the Games following investigation into an alleged state-sponsored dopingprogramme at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. The decision to ban Russia came after the IOC’s Disciplinary Commission, headed by former president ofthe Swiss Confederation Samuel Schmid, confirmed “systemic manipulation of the anti-doping rules and system in Russia”. The IOC had stated, however, that cleanRussian athletes would be allowed to compete as neutrals and last month invited 169 of them – each to be known as Olympic Athlete from Russia (OAR) – toparticipate in the Pyeong Chang Games. The announcement did not go down well outside Russia, even though the IOC declared that “more than 80%” of thoseathletes had not competed in Sochi and had been carefully vetted. That the OAR will form one of the largest contingents at the Games, although there will be noplace for the Russian flag and anthem, makes the ‘ban’ seem a bit of a farce. Further, Russian athletes could be allowed to march under their own flag at the closingceremony if they comply with the IOC’s conditions during the Games. There is a sense that the IOC is not able to punish a sporting superpower like Russia.How is it evident from the passage that IOC is not able to punish a sporting superpower like Russia fully?1).Russian flag will be a part of opening ceremony of Olympics Games.2). Russian athletes will be allowed to march under their flag at the clos ing ceremony of the games.3). Russian athletes are being given special treatment at the games as compared to those of other countries.4). None of these |

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.In mid-2012 I completed my first massive online open course, or MOOC, the kind widely offered by Coursera, EdX, Udacity and so on in partnership with differenteducational institutions. It was on clinical trials and ethical practices, offered by Johns Hopkins, on Coursera. This was shortly before the MOOC sensation hit India,and when Coursera, which was founded by two Stanford professors, itself was just a few months old. The MOOC bug had bit me. The course I’d completed wasmainly designed for health care professionals who would be involved in actual clinical trials, not college students who had no prior knowledge of that area. I decidedto enroll in the course because it was the only biology related course open at the time. However, I did see hope in that sometime in the future I’d be able to get aglimpse of what classes are like in the hallowed halls of major educational institutions around the world. By early 2013, Coursera and EdX had partnered with somany educational institutions and expanded their course offerings to include everything from food and nutrition to Greek mythology to business, that I was spoilt forchoice. I spent hours going through course catalogues and poring over course descriptions, almost delirious with excitement at the fact that I was actually going tobe able to take classes offered by universities I had only dreamt of attending.Coursera was founded by professors from which university?1).Harvard2). Massachusetts3).Stanford4).Oxford |
