Sample Questions

Question 1
Read the following passage and answer: 'The notion that the brain operates like a computer has dominated cognitive science for half a century. Yet the analogy increasingly looks like a category error: neurons are not switches, synapses are not transistors, and the wet electrochemistry of thought bears scant resemblance to the silicon substrate.' What is the author's primary stance toward the brain-as-computer analogy?
Sceptical — the analogy obscures fundamental biological differences
Supportive — silicon and synapses share functional architectures
Neutral — the analogy is useful but requires modernisation
Enthusiastic — modern computers will soon replicate neural function
Question 2
From the same passage above, what does the phrase 'category error' most nearly mean in context?
Treating things of one logical type as if they belonged to another
A simple factual mistake about brain function
A statistical misclassification in cognitive research
An error in cataloguing neural pathways
Question 3
Arrange the following four sentences into a coherent paragraph: (A) These birds were once thought to migrate to the moon. (B) Modern tracking has shown they fly to sub-Saharan Africa. (C) For centuries, Europeans could not explain where swallows went each winter. (D) Tagging studies in the 1900s finally settled the mystery. The correct order is:
C, A, D, B
A, B, C, D
C, D, A, B
D, A, B, C
Question 4
Identify the odd sentence: (1) The Mughal emperors patronised Persian miniature painting throughout the seventeenth century. (2) Court ateliers produced lavish illustrated manuscripts under Akbar and Jahangir. (3) Indian classical music absorbed Persian modal influences during the same period. (4) Shah Jahan commissioned the Padshahnama, one of the finest illustrated chronicles of the era.
Sentence 3
Sentence 1
Sentence 2
Sentence 4
Question 5
Choose the option that best summarises the paragraph: 'Behavioural economists have shown that human decisions deviate systematically from the rational-agent model assumed by classical theory. Loss aversion, anchoring, and present bias are not noise to be averaged away — they are robust regularities. Policy designed without these regularities tends to under-perform; policy that builds them in (default enrolments, salience cues) routinely outperforms standard incentives.'
Predictable cognitive biases should be designed into policy, since incentive-only approaches under-perform
Classical economics has been entirely refuted by behavioural research
Loss aversion is the most important behavioural bias for policy makers
Default enrolments are the only proven behavioural policy tool
