What type of question is this ? (Question:646909.0)

Exam in which such questions asked or will be asked ?

Question:
DIRECTIONS: Each of the following questions has a paragraph from which the last sentence has been deleted. From the given options, choose the sentence that completes the paragraph in the most appropriate way.


Trade protectionism, disguised as concern for the climate, is raising its head. Citing competitiveness concerns, powerful industrialized countries are holding out threats of a levy on imports of energy-intensive products from developing countries that refuse to accept their demands. The actual source of protectionist sentiment in the OECD countries is, of course, their current lacklustre economic performance, combined with the challenges posed by the rapid economic rise of China and India in that order.

Options:
A) Climate change is evoked to bring trade protectionism through the back door
B)

OECD countries are taking refuge in climate change issues to erect trade barriers against these two countries

C)

Climate change concerns have come as a convenient stick to beat the rising trade power of China and India

D) Defenders of the global economic status quo are posing as climate change champions
Solution:

Options (a) and (c) are very generalized statements.

Option (b) is a repetition of the idea presented in the beginning of the paragraph. The para talks about how developed countries indulge in trade protectionism as a move against China and India’s economic rise , under the guise of climate concern. Option (d) and (e) talk about the same thing but (d) goes along with the subtle suggestive tone of the para while (e) is more curt in its accusation of ‘perpetrators of inequity’.
