Delhi High Court JJA / Restorer (Junior Judicial Assistant) Practice Quiz

Question 1

Passage: Many city administrations once treated public parks as decorative luxuries, suitable for prosperous neighborhoods but dispensable elsewhere. Recent studies, however, show that access to green spaces improves mental health, reduces urban heat, and encourages community interaction. As a result, planners now argue that parks should be viewed not as ornaments but as essential public infrastructure, especially in densely populated areas.

Which of the following best states the central idea of the passage?

Accepted Answer

Urban planners now consider parks essential infrastructure because of their social and environmental benefits.

Question 2

Passage: Some economists predicted that lowering ticket prices on public transport would sharply reduce traffic congestion. The policy did increase ridership, but many new passengers were people who had previously walked or cycled rather than those who had driven cars. The result was a modest, not dramatic, reduction in road traffic.

Which assumption behind the economists’ prediction proved weak?

Accepted Answer

That lower fares would mainly attract former car users.

Question 3

Passage: When the company announced a “listening campaign,” employees were initially hopeful. Managers invited suggestions, held town-hall meetings, and circulated anonymous surveys. Yet months later, workers noticed that the same scheduling problems, safety complaints, and promotion concerns remained unresolved. The campaign had generated the appearance of consultation without much evidence of change.

What is the most likely implication of the final sentence?

Accepted Answer

The consultation process was more symbolic than effective.
