This IBPS & SBI Exam special quiz series will mold your preparations in the right direction and the regular practice of these quizzes will be really very helpful in scoring good marks in the Examination. Here we are providing you the important question of reasoning ability for the IBPS & SBI Exam.
1-5. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given below. To help you locate the answer, few words are written in bold.
The world’s oceans are heating up at an accelerating pace as global warming threatens a diverse range of marine life and a major food supply for the planet, is concluded by researchers. The findings in a famous journal led by the sure-handed people, debunk previous reports that suggested a so-called pause in global warming in recent years. The latest technology shows no such hiatus ever existed, raising new concerns about the pace of climate change and its effect on the planet’s main buffer — the oceans. A professor from a renowned university stated that- “Ocean heating is a very important indicator of climate change, and we have robust evidence that it is warming more rapidly than we thought. Gallons of excess heat trapped around the Earth by greenhouse gases those come from the burning of fossil fuels accumulates in the world’s oceans.
The latest report relied on various studies, gave more precise estimates of past trends in ocean heat, allowing scientists to update past research and hone predictions for the future. A key factor in the more accurate numbers is an ocean monitoring fleet called Argo, which includes a large number of floating robots which drift throughout the world’s oceans, every few days diving to a depth of approx. 2,000 m and measuring the ocean’s temperature, pH, salinity and other bits of information as they rise back up. Argo has provided consistent and widespread data on ocean heat content since the mid-20s.
The new analysis shows warming in the oceans is on pace with measurements of rising air temperature. And if nothing is done to reduce greenhouse gases, models predict that the temperature of the top 2,000 meters of the world’s oceans will rise beyond the control by the end of the century. The thermal expansion of water swelling would raise sea level to an extent above.

01. The article is talking about strop and alarming situations expected to occur in the coming future.
02. The writer is mentioning about the unpredictable future of ocean in terms of growing heat that may be improved day by day in the coming years.
03. The article is stating that with the help of these reports future can be improved as we are ready with the forthcoming circumstances.
04. The article is referring to the fact that in spite of performing different researches and report preparation in large numbers, more and more data are required to declare the future of global warming.
05. Only (1) and (2) can be true.
