Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT-K) 2006 JT - Question Paper

We can tune into intuition as part of our regular life. The ques. therefore is not whether intuition is an
inborn quality, but whether we can make ourselves intuitive.
When we step into the present, we step out of time-bound awareness. We step beyond tension. Our body
stops producing adrenaline. Time-bound awareness is mass, which is solid. Non time-bound awareness is
pure energy, liquid, dynamic, bubbling and creative. We step out of our boundaries. We become free. We
become intuitive.
When our thoughts stop, our current vision extends into the past and the future. We become free of time and
space constraints. When we meditate deeply, we become intuitive, and can reach cosmic intelligence or
enlightenment.
Q.21 Which of the subsequent statements CANNOT be directly inferred from the above passage?
(A) Effective decisions are not necessarily perfect decisions
(B) Successful CEOs have intuitive powers
(C) To be intuitive, we have to step out of our time-boundaries
(D) Meditation helps us take effective decisions
Q.22 The MOST improper title for the passage might be

Q.23 According to the passage, a successful business leader
(A) relies mostly on logic and facts (B) is more intelligent than his / her opponents

Solutions for Q. 21-23:
21. The ans is (D). All the other choices can be
inferred from the passage. However no direct

making is shown in the passages.
22. The ans is (B). The passage does not talk
about transcending intuitive boundaries nor does it
explain intuition with relation to leadership or
reasoning. However (B) reflects the intent of the
passage.
23. The ans is (C) and is reflected in the
beginning of the passage.
