Passage – 1
White cement is the basic raw material for producing tiles
and cement paint which are used extensively in building
construction. The main consumes of white cement are,
therefore, cement tile and cement paint manufacturing units.
These consumers, mostly is the small scale sector, are today
facing a major crisis because of a significant increase in the
price of white cement during a short period. The present
annual licensed production capacity of white and grey cement
during a short period. The present annual licensed production
capacity of white and grey cement in the country is
approximately 3.5 lakh tonnes. The average demand is 2-2.5
tonnes. This means that there is idle capacity to the tune of
one lakh tonnes or more. The price rise is, therefore, not a
phenomenon arising out of inadequate production capacity
but evidently because of artificial scarcity created by the
manufactures in their self-interest.
The main reason for the continuing spurt in cement price
is its decontrol. As it is, there is stiff completion in the cement
paint and tile manufacturing business. Any further price
revision at this stage is bound to have a severe adverse impact
on the marker conditions. The Government should take
adequate steps to ensure that suitable controls are brought in.
Else it should allow import of cement.
191. Why is the price of cement going up?
(a) Because the Government is controlling the quota.
(b) Because of export of white cement.

the passage?
(a) Price rise in white cement would increase the price
of cement paint.
(b) White cement is a controlled product.
(c) Increase in price of white cement is not because of
production problem.
(d) Most cement paint manufactures are from small
scale sector.
193. What is the crisis being faced by the cement tile
manufactures as described in passage?
(a) White cement is priced very low.
(b) White cement is not of good quality.
(c) White cement usage is high.
(d) White cement prices are very high.
194. Which of the following words has the same meaning as
the word ‘idle’ as used in the passage?
(a) Lazy
(b) Clumsy
(c) Large

195. Which of the following is correct according to the
passage?

paint.
(b) White cement forms a minor part of tile
manufacturing.
(c) White cement is very important for tile
manufacturing.
(d) White cement is used only for making paints.
196. Which of the following words has the same meaning as
the word ‘artifical’ as used in the passage?
(a) Unnatural
(b) Prolonged
(c) Practical
(d) Deliberate
197. What is the author’s suggestion to bring down prices?
(a) Government should control the white cement
market.
(b) Production capacity should be increased.
