Solutions
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. Since from the given information , we can only find the code for ‘are’ in the first statement, it cannot be determined which of the remaining two codes stands for ‘roses’.
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. In the second and third statements, the common word code-word is ‘hee’ and the common word is ‘flowers’. So, ‘hee’ stands for ‘flowers’. Thus, in the second statement, ‘sik’ stands for ‘red’
S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. Clearly, the required code will consist of the same codes as in the third statement with the code for ‘red’ added to it.
S4. Ans.(d)
Sol. From the given options no option satisfies the code of blue.
S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. In the third and first statement, the common code –word is ‘ra’ and the common word is ‘it’. So, ‘ra’ means ‘it’. Thus, in the third statement, ‘nil’ and ‘pom’ are codes for ‘you’ and ‘like’. In the first and fourth statements, the common code-word is ‘lee’ and the common word is ‘was’. So, ‘lee’ means ‘was’. Thus, in the first statement, ‘de’ means ‘what’. Hence, the code for ‘what you like’ shall be a combination of ‘de’, ’nil’ and ‘pom’.
S6. Ans.(c)
Sol. S6.We sleep in the ‘night’. But ‘night’ is called ‘sunshine’. So, we sleep in the ‘sunshine’.
S7. Ans.(c)
Sol. S7.A person will stand on the ‘floor’ and ‘floor’ is called ‘roof’. So, a person will stand on the ‘roof’.
S8. Ans.(a)
Sol. S8.Fishes live in ‘water’ and as given, ‘water’ is called ‘colour’. So, fishes live in ‘colour’.
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. The lady shall bake in an ‘oven’ but ‘oven’ is called ‘grinder’. So, the lady will bake in a ‘grinder’.
S10. Ans.(b)
Sol. The colour of milk is ‘white’. But, as given , ‘green’ means ‘white’. So, the colour of milk is ‘green’.
