Hence steps V will be the last but one. Solution for 17-22: In step I the word that comes first in
11. (b) the alphabetical order comes to the first position, pushing
Step II : 19 years 85 74 near gone 26 store the rest of the line rightward. In the next step the largest
numbers comes to the second position pushing the rest of
Step III : 19 years 26 85 74 near gone store the line rightward. This goes on alternately till the words
Step IV : 19 years 26 store 85 74 near gone get arranged in an alphabetical order and the number in
Step V : 19 years 26 store 74 85 near gone a descending order at alternately position.
Step VI : 19 years 26 store 74 near 85 gone 17. (b)
Hence 6 – 2 = 4 more steps will be required Input: year 39 stake 47 house full 94 55
Solution for 12 -16: In step I the word that comes first Step I : full year 39 stake 47 house 94 55
in the alphabetical order comes to the leftmost position. Step II : full 94 year 39 stake 47 house 55
Pushing the rest of the line rightward. In step II the Step III : full 94 house year 39 stake 47 55
smallest number comes to the second position, pushing
the rest of the line rightward. Thus the words and the Step IV : full 94 house 55 year 39 stake 47
number arranged alternately until the former make an Step V : full 94 house 55 stake year 39 47
alphabetical order and the latter an ascending one. Step VI : full 94 house 55 stake 47 year 39
Punjab & Sind Bank (PO) 18. (b) Step II: car 83 lost ever 32 46 74 now

12. (b) Step III : car 83 ever lost 32 46 74 now
Input: train 59 47 25 over burden 63 sky Step IV : car 83 ever 74 lost 32 46 now
Step I : burden train 59 47 25 over 63 sky Step V : car 83 ever 74 lost 46 32 now
Step II : burden 25 train 59 47 over 63 sky Step VI : car 83 ever 74 lost 46 now 32
Step III : burden 25 over train 59 47 63 sky Hence 6 – 2 = 4 more step will be required.
Step IV : burden 25 over 47 train 59 63 sky 19. (d) we can’t proceed backward.
Step V : burden 25 over 47 train sky 59 63 20. (a)
Step VI : burden 25 over 47 sky 59 train 63 Input: water full never 35 78 16 height 28
Hence step V is the last but one. Step I : full water never 35 78 16 height 28
13. (e) Input: service 46 58 96 over there desk 15 Step II : full 78 water never 35 16 height 28
Step I : desk service 46 58 96 over there 15 Step III : full 78 height water never 35 16 28
Step II : desk 15 service 46 58 96 over there Step IV : full 78 height 35 water never 16 28
Step III : desk 15 over service 46 58 96 there Step V : full 78 height 35 never water 16 28
Step IV : desk 15 over 46 service 58 96 there
Step VI : full 78 height 35 never 28 water 16
Step V : desk 15 over 46 service 58 there 96 21. (d)
Since the input is already arranged, there will be no Step II : high 69 store pay 36 43 15 there
step VI.
Step III : high 69 pay store 36 43 15 there
14. (d) we can’t proceed backward.
15. (d) Step III: art 24 day 83 71 54 star power Step IV : high 69 pay 43 store 36 15 there
Step IV : art 24 day 54 83 71 star power Step V : high 69 pay 43 store 36 there 15
Step V : art 24 day 54 power 83 71 star Since the input is already arranged, there will be no
further steps
Step VI : art 24 day 54 power 71 83 star 22. (e)
Step VII: art 24 day 54 power 71 star 83 Input: train more 29 53 fast gear 37 84
16. (c) Step II: cold 17 wave 69 never desk 52 43
Step I : fast train more 29 53 gear 37 84
Step III : cold 17 desk wave 69 never 52 43 Step II : fast 84 train more 29 53 gear 37
Step IV : cold 17 desk 43 wave 69 never 52 Step III : fast 84 gear train more 29 53 37
Step V : cold 17 desk 43 never wave 69 52 Step IV : fast 84 gear 53 train more 29 37
Step VI : cold 17 desk 43 never 52 wave 69 s
