Paragraph Completion Techniques- Tips and Strategies by Da gny Ta gga rt - Mo nda y, 10 No ve m be r 2008, 06:00 P M

I think I have prolonged this article for quite some time now but its never too late than never. Although I admit that it is not a very w ell researched or w ell thought article but I think it will do the needful in case you get such questions in this CAT as w ell. With time Ill w ork and rew ork on this article till I am happy myself w ith w hat I have w ritten. Talking from my personal experience I have always thought that paragraph completion is a game of w ell read people. It is no rocket science but someone w ho doesnt read, w ould never be able to crack paragraph completion atleast. In one phrase if you ask me how to crack a paragraph completion question, Id say Maintain The Continuity. That is all it takes and hence proves my point that you have to be well read to understand the flow of the passage. Most of the time the crux of the passage will lie in the first line itself, and the rest of the passage w ill move with the same flow. The flow can be maintained w ither by maintaining the parallel structure or through contrast. Let's look a some examples from previous year CAT papers. Maintaining continuity through maintaining a parallel structure: 1. I am sometimes attacked for imposing 'rules'. Nothing could be further from the truth. I hate rules. All I do is report on how consumers react to different stimuli. I may say to a copyw riter, "Research show s that commercials w ith celebrities are below average in persuading people to buy products. Are you sure you want to use a celebrity?" Call that a rule? Or I may say to an art director, "Research suggests that if you set the copy in black type on a w hite background, more people w ill read it than if you set it in white type on a black background." (CAT 2006) 1. Guidance based on applied research can hardly qualify as 'rules'. 2. Thus, all my so called 'rules' are rooted in applied research. 3. A suggestion perhap s, but scarcely a rule. 4. Such principles are unavoidable if one w ants to be systematic about consumer behaviour. 5. Fundamentally it is about consumer behaviour - not about celebrities or type settings. The paragraph starts w ith the author mentioning that he does not impose rules. To validate his assertion he gives tw o examples, X and Y. And then see the structureExample X follow ed by Call that a rule? Example Y follow ed by. What w ill you choose except option 3? You need a sentence w hich would point to example Y, implying that Y is not a rule. 2. We can usefully think of theoretical models as maps, which help us navigate unfamiliar territory. The most accurate map that it is possible to construct w ould be of no practical use whatsoever, for it w ould be an exact replica, on exactly the same scale, of the place where we w ere. Good maps pull out the most important features and throw away a huge amount of much less valuable information. Of course, maps can be bad as w ell as good - witness the attempts by medieval Europe to produce a map of the w orld. In the same w ay, a bad theory, no matter how impressive it may seem in principle, does little or nothing to help us understand a problem. (CAT 2006) 1. But good theories, just like good maps, are invaluable, even if they are simplified. 2. But good theories, just like good maps, w ill never represent unfamiliar concepts in detail. 3. But good theories, just like good maps, need to balance detail and feasibility of representation. 4. But good theories, just like good maps, are accurate only at a certain level of abstraction. 5. But good theories, just like good maps, are useful in the hands of a user w ho know s their limitations. If you understand the structure of the last sentence you w ould invariable get this right. Let me put in a simple form: X, even if its impressive, is Bad. How ever Y is good If I continue the structure of the last sentence, the complete thing w ould be: X, even if its impressive, is Bad. However Y, even if its not impressive, is good. What can you choose except option 1? Maintaining continuity through contrast: 3. The audiences for crosswords and sudoku, understandably, overlap greatly, but there are differences, too. A crossw ord attracts a more literary person, w hile sudoku appeals to a keenly logical mind. Some crossword enthusiasts turn up their noses at sudoku because they feel it lacks depth. A good crossword requires vocabulary, know ledge, mental flexibility and

sometimes even a sense of humor to complete. It touches numerous areas of life and provides an "Aha!" or two along the w ay. _______________________ (CAT 2005) 1. Sudoku, on the other hand, is just a logical exercise, each one similar to the last. 2. Sudoku, incidentally, is grow ing faster in popularity than crosswords, even among the literati. 3. Sudoku, on the other hand, can be attempted and enjoyed even by children. 4. Sudoku, how ever, is not exciting in any sense of the term. This paragraph is starts w ith mentioning a contrast (but there are differences). The first contrast comes as A crossw ord attracts a more literary person, w hile sudoku appeals to a keenly logical mind. The second contrast starts with A good crossword requires X, Y and Z The second contrast is to be completed. If you keep in mind the first contrast you can complete the second contrast with option 1. 4. In the evolving world order, the comparative advantage of the United States lies in its military force. Diplomacy and international law have always been regarded as annoying encumbrances, unless they can be used to advantage against an enemy. Every active player in world affairs professes to seek only peace and to prefer negotiation to violence and coercion. (CAT 2006) 1. However, diplomacy has often been used as a mask by nations w hich intended to use force. 2. However, when the veil is lifted, we commonly see that diplomacy is understood as a disguise for the rule of force. 3. However, history has shown that many of these nations do not practice what they profess. 4. However, history tells us that peace is professed by those who intend to use violence. 5. However, when unmasked, such nations reveal a penchant for the use force. If you see the contrast happening betw een diplomacy and use of force you will end up at option 1 and 2. Option 2 has to be chosen because it is providing an intended contrast to Each player professes to seek.. by the w ords when the veil is lifted... If you go by the implied meaning of someone is professing to have or do something you automatically get a notion that something is hidden behind. And the w ords veil is lifted bring out the notion in w ords by telling you that the hidden thing is unmasked.

The best w ay to practise these questions is to pick up questions from previous year CAT papers and w rite down every reason fro picking up or eliminating the option. Good Luck! This article would have not been possible w ithout TGs help so my heartfelt thanks go to him.

Hi Dagny , Could y ou please help solv e this question: Most firms consider expert indiv iduals to be too elitist, tempramental, egocentric, and difficult to work with.Force such people to collaborate on a high-stakes project and they just might come to fisticuffs.Ev en the v ery notion of managing such a group seems unimaginable.So most organizations fall into default mode, setting up project teams of people who get along nicely .________________________(CA T 2005 ) 1 . The result, howev er, is disastrous. 2. The result is mediocrity . 3. The result is creation of experts who then become elitist. 4. Naturally , they driv e innov ations. I had chosen 4, as how can we predict the result. Since the people get along well, the results should be good !! The correct answer is giv en as 2. Thanks and regards
