caught by X, one of the persons pursuing them, stabbed him and ran
away. By the time B and C had disappeared. X died on account of the
Page 54 of 74
stab wounds. Later, the police arrested all the three. They were charged
for attempted burglary and murder of X.
a) Along with A, the person who stabbed X,B and C are also guilty of
murder because A stabbed X in furtherance of common intention
b) Along with A, B and C are also guilty of murder because A, at the
time of stabbing X, was acting on behalf of B and C and he wanted to
save not only himself but Band C as well

hypothermia
d) B will be liable since A was hospitalised
154. Principle: The owner of a land is entitled to the column of air space
above the surface ad infinitum. But, the right is restricted to such height
Page 55 of 74
as is necessary for the ordinary use and employn1ent of his land, and the
structure on it.
Facts: A had constructed a single-storeyed house on a co1ner site. He
had no intention of building an additional floor. B his neighbour, who ran
an internet parlour got a hoarding made, which protruded over A's house

a) A will succeed since B's act amounts to trespass
b) A will not succeed since he was anyway not planning to build an
additional storey
c) A will not succeed since the hoarding is not obstructing him
d) A will not succeed since B has a right to erect a hoarding
155. Principle: Trespass to land is the wrongful and unwarranted entry upon
the land of another.

with the show
d) He will not succeed since A did not have the intention to trespass
156. Principle: Negligence is the breach of a duty caused by an omission to

do something which a reasonable person would do or an act which a
prudent and reasonable person would not do. An action for negligence
proceeds upon the principle that the person has an obligation or duty on
the part of the defendant, which he/she breaches, leading to damage.

Given below are passages. Answer the questions accordingly:
P1. The decision to include Iran in international talks on Syrias future means
that all the major foreign players will sit together for the first time to consider a
political resolution of the war, which has killed more than 250,000 people and
caused millions more to flee the country.
Irans presence in Vienna on Thursday and Friday wont guarantee an end to

Syrias prolonged agony, but it improves the chances that a solution can be
found. Russia, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Egypt, Jordan,
Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates are also expected to
attend.
The United States, Russia and Europe failed at earlier efforts to reach a
negotiated end to Syrias civil war, which has raged since 2011, and created
such chaos that the murderous Islamic State has been able to seize vast swaths
of territory. There are many reasons for that failure, chiefly Russias obstinacy,
but one is the refusal to include Iran, which with Moscow provides vital support
for President Bashar al-Assad of Syria.
Initially, the exclusion made sense. The United States, which does not have
formal diplomatic relations with Iran, was mainly preoccupied as were other
major Western powers with reaching an agreement with Iran on nuclear
weapons. With that deal done, there is every reason to engage Iran on Syria,
especially since Russias recent military intervention on the side of Mr. Assad
has vastly complicated the conflict and added new urgency to the need for a
political solution.
Not everyone will be happy to see Iran at the table. Saudi Arabia, deeply
suspicious of Irans regional ambitions, argues that negotiating with Iran only
legitimizes a government that is exerting malign influence in Iraq, Lebanon,
Yemen, Bahrain and Syria. The Saudis, who are Sunnis, fought especially hard
Page 64 of 74
to keep Shiite Iran, its main regional rival, from the Vienna meeting and it took
a trip to Riyadh on Saturday by Secretary of State John Kerry and a phone call
on Tuesday by President Obama to Saudi King Salman to win them over.
The Saudis want Mr. Assad removed from power and the Iranians removed
from any post-Assad Syria. They have reportedly tried to enlist President
Vladimir Putin of Russia in these objectives with offers of assistance for
Russias battered economy. Mr. Putin reportedly told the Saudis that he agreed
that Irans role in Syria is too big, but that he could not guarantee Mr. Assads
removal.
The Saudis aside, most of the negotiators in Vienna would be delighted by

progress on a framework for a transition from Mr. Assad to a more inclusive
government. While Mr. Assad needs to leave, the change must be done
carefully, retaining the institutions that help keep the state intact. Ideally, a
political solution would lead to a more unified multinational campaign against
the Islamic State and an eventual end to all foreign involvement in Syria.
In an interview in December 2013, Irans foreign minister, Mohammad Javad

Zarif, said that Iran understood that there could be no military solution in Syria
and would not stand in the way of a political solution. Since then however, Iran
has doubled down on its military involvement in Syria, while its supreme
leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has said that there will be no cooperation with
the United States on issues other than the nuclear agreement.
Given the mixed messages, no one knows yet what Iran will do, but it has a
chance to make a difference in Syria. Its involvement in Vienna will be a test of
whether it intends to play a constructive role in the region and in ending Mr.
Assads brutal war.

P2. In an effort to find out how ocean mass affects tectonic plates, a team of
German scientists has recently taken on one of the most difficult sets of
measurements possible in nature, namely to determine how much the sea
weighs. Unlike calculating variations in sea levels, which is relatively simple,
finding out the mass of the water is far more complex, as a large number of
factors contribute to changes in this number.
Additionally, the oceans are not static, as in ideal models, so the number varies
considerably over short time frames.
Page 68 of 74
Scientists at the Helmholtz Associations GFZ German Research Centre for

Geosciences and the Alfred-Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Sciences,
working together with colleagues from the University of Bonn, say they have
solved the riddle by coming up with calculations so precise that they observed
even short-term fluctuations in the spatial distribution of water masses inside
the body of water.
For our study we, therefore, combined different procedures so as to be able to

judge changes in mass, Dr Juergen Kusche writes. The scientist is a geodesist
at the University of Bonn, and also a coauthor of a new scientific paper
detailing the findings which appears in the latest issue of the respected Journal
of Geophysical Research.
The two main elements that a scientist needs to know in order to calculate the
mass of the ocean are the topography of its bottom and also the height of the sea
level. There are, however, other elements at work as well, such as temperature
and the salt content. Water expands when heated. Warm water, thus, weighs less
than the same quantity of cold water.
Data from the German-American satellite mission GRACE and knowledge of

the bookshelf effect were used. The ocean floor bends similarly to that of the
shelves of an overfilled bookshelf. Thus, stationary GPS-gauging stations on
land drop by up to one centimetre and move closer by a few millimetres. The
heavier the water, the stronger is this movement.
We combined these data with numerical models of the ocean. In this way we
were able to prove, for the first time, that in particular in the higher latitudes,
significant fluctuations of the water mass occur and that this takes place within
a time period of only one to two weeks, Dr. Kusche writes
184. Why did the German scientists want to weigh the ocean?
a) To calculate variation in sea levels
Page 69 of 74
b) To determine fluctuations of water mass within a time period

c) To determine how ocean mass affects tectonic plates
d) To determine accurately the temperature and salt content of the ocean

186. What are the essentials elements required for calculating the mass of the
ocean?
A) Temperature
B) Salt content
C) Topography of the oceans bottom
D) Height of sea level
a) a and b
b) a, b and c
c) b, d, and a
d) all of the above
187. What is true with regard to the passage?

a) Due to expansion of water, warm water weighs more than cold water
b) Cold water is less dense than warm water and thus weighs less
c) Water mass fluctuates more in lower latitudes
d) Due to expansion of water, warm water weighs lesser than cold water
188. Antonym of fluctuate
