Questions 61 - 65 carry two marks each.
61. The recent news that local hospitals have had to reroute seriously ill patients because the community's critical-care beds are full is worrisome. Earlier this week, four of the six local hospitals ran out of space for the critically ill and had to turn people away. Federal law requires hospitals to treat anyone who walks in. As a result of having to treat large numbers of uninsured patients, the emergency rooms often become an economic drain on their hospitals. Doctors now want to set up their own free standing ambulatory surgical facilities and diagnostic centers. Critics contend this would leave hospitals with less revenue and the same number of indigents to treat. A bill was recently introduced to phase out the need for a "certificate of public need" for non-hospital based facilities, provided those facilities met stringent regulations and requirements. This would have made it easier to set up alternative facilities to help indigent patients. The finance committee balked at the hefty price and killed the bill, another casualty of a failed legislative session. Unfortunately, the problem of access to medical care for those of limited means is not going to go away anytime soon and, despite the well-intended regulations, too-full hospitals compromise everyone's welfare. Healthy competition with small neighborhood surgical and diagnostic centers may be what is necessary to help dampen rising medical costs. But under no circumstances should the hospitals be forced to care for everybody without health insurance while competitors operate free of the burden of caring for those unable to pay.
According to the passage, which of the following is cited as a factor which has contributed to the overburdening of hospitals?
I. Failure to pass legislation which would have mitigated the problem II. Limited access to medical care for the poor
III. Federal law
(A) I only
(B) III only
(C) I and II
(D) I, II, and III

Questions 61 - 65 carry two marks each.
61. The levels of dissolved oxygen in the world’s ocean waters are declining precipitously. Just like humans, fish need oxygen to survive, and so in ocean areas experiencing significant levels of oxygen scarcity, or hypoxia, fish populations are plummeting. Although some hypoxic areas, called “dead zones,” occur naturally, hypoxia in coastal areas and inland waters is caused mainly by agricultural run-off and by discharge of industrial wastewaters. More than one-hundred permanent dead zones, many covering thousands of square miles, exist worldwide today.

Since reproductive success is the most critical factor in the sustainability of any species, the extent of this threat to marine life and genetic diversity can hardly be overstated. After several months in hypoxic waters, female fish produce fewer eggs. Moreover, hypoxic conditions serve to alter the normal ratio between two particular hormones manufactured during the embyonic stage when a fish’s gender is determined. During gestation and under these conditions, the mother produces more testosterone (and less estradiol), which inhibits the development of female reproductive organs and other female characteristics in the embryo, while promoting the development of male traits.
The passage explicitly supports the assertion that hypoxia
(A) drives salt-water fish away from coastal waters
(B) poses a threat to the coastal fishing industry
(C) is the result of lax environmental regulation
(D) can occur independently of human activity
62. A drinks machine offers three selections - Tea, Coffee or Random but the machine
has been wired up wrongly so that each button does not give what it claims. If each
drink costs 5 rupees, how much minimum money do you have to put into the
machine to work out which button gives which selection?
(A) 5 rupees
(B) 10 rupees
(C) 25 rupees
(D) Infinity
63. A woman with four children bought a sack of peanuts. To the oldest child, a boy she
gave one peanut and 1/4th of what remained, and to each of the other children she

found that the boys had received 100 more peanuts than the girls. What was the
initial number of peanuts?
