SBI Clerk 2024 – Mains Question Paper
Directions (1-6): In the following passage, several blanks have been provided, each followed by a set of options. Choose the word that is not suitable to fill the given blank.
Hate is not an (A) emotion—it is cultivated through adverse experiences. Often, a single
painful incident can ignite a feeling of betrayal, injustice, or humiliation, which, if left unresolved, transforms into (B) and eventually, hatred. For instance, a person who faces public ridicule
or emotional abandonment may begin to foster deep hostility not only toward the offender but also toward similar individuals or situations.
This emotion, although reactive, is (C). Hatred distorts perception, clouds judgment, and
disrupts emotional stability. It narrows our capacity to trust, to empathize, and even to hope. Over time, it can evolve into a _________________ (D) state of negativity, affecting relationships, productivity, and mental well-being.
However, it is essential to recognize that hate often masks (E) pain. Rather than suppressing
it or allowing it to fester, individuals must confront its origin. Reflection, honest self-inquiry, and emotional articulation are necessary steps toward healing. Forgiveness—though often misunderstood—is not about excusing the wrong, but about releasing the emotional grip it holds over us.
Understanding hate requires emotional maturity. It is a signal, not a solution. While it may arise naturally, choosing to live with it is (F). The real strength lies in transforming that pain into
insight, and using it to cultivate resilience and compassion. Hate may expose our wounds, but it is through acceptance and understanding that we begin to heal and reclaim our emotional freedom.

Sucrose, the last among the three, possesses the most complex chemical structure and is slightly harder to digest, although it remains relatively easy to process.
These three types of sugars can be distinguished based on their content and chemical composition. Glucose, which has the simplest structure, can be directly extracted from corn and is rapidly digested by the human body.
Honey contains varying amounts of fructose and sucrose depending on its botanical source; however, it also includes unique elements that set it apart from other sugars.
The enzymes present in honey originate either from the plants it is derived from or are secreted by bees during the production process.
Fructose, the second type, features a slightly more complex chemical structure than glucose and occurs naturally in fruits.
Glucose, fructose, and sucrose are three primary types of sugars, all of which offer nearly the same caloric value per gram.
What sets it apart are the beneficial enzymes it contains, which aid in breaking down the two sugars into glucose.

Directions (23-30): Read the following passage and answer the given questions.
India’s electric vehicle (EV) industry is undergoing a profound transformation. Once marred by scepticism, financial constraints, and infrastructural shortcomings, the sector is now accelerating toward a cleaner, technology-driven future. The most notable momentum is observed in the electric two-wheeler (E2W) segment, where sales have reached a significant 18 million units. This surge is fuelled by a combination of factors: evolving consumer preferences, cost-efficiency, and concerted policy interventions aimed at mainstreaming e-mobility.
The industry’s initial journey was fraught with economic setbacks. High battery costs, limited product availability, and nascent infrastructure impeded early adoption. Traditional automotive giants exercised caution, while start-ups and new entrants struggled with scalability and profitability. However, technological breakthroughs, particularly in battery design, have ushered in a phase of renewed optimism. Enhanced energy density, reduction in dependency on expensive raw materials such as cobalt, and advances in battery recycling have significantly curtailed production costs.
Parallelly, the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) is revolutionising vehicle intelligence. Features like adaptive cruise control, predictive maintenance, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are redefining user experience, especially among Gen Z consumers who demand innovation, sustainability, and digital integration in mobility solutions.
Government initiatives like FAME-II, EMPS 2024, and Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) are playing a pivotal role in ecosystem development. With the rollout of over 74,000 EV chargers, including 48,400 fast chargers, India is rapidly addressing range anxiety and enhancing user confidence. These developments are not only catalysing EV adoption but also compelling legacy automakers to pivot, innovate, and invest in electrification.
The ______________ are unmistakable. The traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) sector is being redefined as manufacturers embrace hybrid models, enter EV joint ventures, and realign long-term strategies. The discourse has shifted from “if and why” to “how and when,” reflecting an irreversible momentum.
While challenges persist—especially in rural connectivity, component dependency, and grid readiness—the trajectory is promising. With E2W sales projected to reach 7–9 million by 2030, and electric three-wheelers expected to command up to 75% of market share, India is poised to become a global leader in sustainable mobility.
Q23. Which of the following statements can be logically inferred from the passage?
- The Indian government’s infrastructural and fiscal policies are not only supporting existing EV manufacturers but are also influencing traditional automobile companies to shift strategies.
- Technological innovations have not only made EVs cheaper to produce but have also contributed to features that align with changing consumer demands.
- The growth of electric vehicles in India has primarily been driven by rural demand and local manufacturing incentives.

Directions (37-40): Read the following passage and answer the given questions.
The traditional interview process often relies on the candidate’s ability to describe their prior experiences, qualifications, past work duties, and skillsets — an approach that creates a larger barrier to recruitment and selection for most non-native speakers. Managers should consider whether candidates should be tested on their ability to talk or write about their skills, or on their ability to demonstrate these skills in practice. To this end, rather than testing oral or written communication aptitude, companies can adopt innovative ways to test practical and technical on-the-job skills, in which candidates are asked to perform a task and are on their proficiency in execution rather than language fluency.
For example, specific skills assessments such as coding tasks in IT, computational challenges in finance, or portfolio reviews in creative professions or construction would allow candidates to demonstrate their potential contribution to the role. Additionally, some employers work with bilingual managers and assigned mentors who can support refugees in their work transition when needed. Others rely on technology, using language apps designed specifically to teach workers the technical vocabulary required for a given job. In the long term, the investment in language development could allow companies to capitalize on the skills of their multicultural and multilingual workforce, who can better serve their increasingly diverse customer base.
Q37. Which of the following best summarizes the central argument presented in the passage?
- Traditional interviews are universally effective in assessing a candidate’s communication and job performance skills, especially for native speakers.
- The interview process should continue to prioritize oral and written communication to maintain professional standards across industries.
- Recruitment strategies must evolve to emphasize candidates’ practical demonstration of skills over their verbal articulation, especially to support non-native speakers and promote inclusivity.
- All organizations must adopt a single standardized skill assessment model that eliminates interviews altogether to ensure fairness in selection.
- Language proficiency tests should be made more rigorous in interviews to ensure only well-spoken professionals are recruited.
Q38. What assumption does the author make about the relationship between language skills and job performance?
- High language proficiency always results in high job productivity, particularly in technical roles.
- Language skills are irrelevant in all professional fields and should not be a consideration in recruitment.
- Fluency in communication may not accurately reflect a candidate’s job capabilities, and overemphasis on it can limit access for capable non-native speakers.
- Multilingual individuals automatically outperform monolingual individuals due to broader vocabulary and cultural awareness.
- Employees with poor communication skills will struggle regardless of their technical competency.
Q39. According to the passage, which of the above statements is/are correct?
- The traditional interview process disadvantages non-native speakers by emphasizing language proficiency over job-related capabilities.
- Companies that invest in developing the language skills of non-native employees may be better equipped to serve a diverse clientele in the future.
- Replacing traditional interviews with standardized language tests is the most effective method to promote inclusivity in hiring.
- Only (I) is correct
- Only (II) is correct
- Both (I) and (III) are correct
- Both (I) and (II) are correct
