Find out the alternative which will replace the question mark: Paw : Cat :: Hoof : ?
- (A) Lamb
- (B) Elephant
- (C) Lion
- (D) Horse

Think of it like this: a paw belongs to a cat, just like a hoof belongs to a horse. Horses have hooves, while lambs have cloven hooves, elephants have flat feet, and lions have padded paws. Only the horse matches the analogy. So, the answer is horse.
A disadvantage of the laser printer is:
- (A) It is quieter than an impact printer
- (B) It is very slow
- (C) The output is of a lower quality
- (D) None of these
- (D) None of these
A laser printer works fast and quietly and delivers sharp, high-quality prints—unlike older impact printers that tend to be noisy and slower. So, speed, quiet operation, and high resolution aren’t really drawbacks. If anything, the downsides you’ll run into with laser printers are stuff like higher costs or maintenance needs, not the things listed here. That means (D) None of these is the right answer.
Which of the following is a Dot Matrix printer?
- (A) Drum Printer
- (B) Inkjet Printer
- (C) Impact Printer
- (D) Laser Printer
- (C) Impact Printer
A Dot Matrix printer works by hitting an inked ribbon with tiny pins to create dots on the paper. That’s how it prints characters and images—basically, it uses mechanical force to produce output. It’s not the same as a laser printer (which uses electrostatics), an inkjet (which sprays liquid ink), or a drum printer. So, Dot Matrix falls under the Impact Printer category. Answer: (C) Impact Printer

- (A) Gen. Yahya Khan

- (C) Gen. Tikka Khan
- (D) Gen. Zia-ul-Haq
- (B) Gen. Ayub Khan
Ayub Khan became Pakistan’s Commander-in-Chief in 1951—the first Pakistani to hold that job.

Tikka Khan took over in 1972 and served until 1976, and then Zia-ul-Haq headed the army from 1976 to 1988.
What is the official distance of running in a Marathon race?
- (A) 22.4 miles
- (B) 26.2 miles
- (C) 20.5 miles
- (D) 27.3 miles
- (B) 26.2 miles
A marathon covers 26.2 miles, or 42.195 kilometers. They set this distance back in 1908 during the London Olympics, so the route stretched from Windsor Castle to the Olympic Stadium. The original marathon story comes from the run of Pheidippides, a Greek soldier, but the distance wasn’t always set—people used different lengths before settling on 26.2 miles. Now, that’s the number everyone follows for marathons.
What is the shortcut key to open the Open Dialogue box in MS-Word?
- (A) F12

- (C) Alt + F12
- (D) Ctrl + F12
- (D) Ctrl + F12
In MS Word, if you want to open the dialog box to browse and select a file, just press Ctrl + F12. That shortcut gets you straight to the file selection window—no digging through menus. If you press F12 alone, that pulls up “Save As.” Shift + F12 is just “Save,” and Alt + F12 doesn’t actually do anything by default. So the right choice here is (D) Ctrl + F12.

- (B) Arctic Ocean
- (C) Atlantic Ocean

- (A) Pacific Ocean
The Pacific Ocean really stands out—it’s the biggest and deepest ocean we have. It stretches over 168 million square kilometers, and at its deepest, in the Mariana Trench, it plunges down nearly 10,924 meters. None of the other oceans—Atlantic, Indian, or Arctic—come close when it comes to size or depth. The Pacific just takes the crown.

- (A) PNS NASR
- (B) PNS Hamgor
- (C) PNS Zulfiqar
- (D) PNS Ghazi
- (D) PNS Ghazi
PNS Ghazi was Pakistan’s first long-range submarine and played a big role in the Indo-Pak wars of 1965 and 1971. It wasn’t just a showpiece—it got involved in serious action, carrying out reconnaissance and going on the attack when needed. PNS Ghazi was a Tench-class diesel-electric submarine—the first fast-attack sub in the Pakistan Navy. In the 1965 War, it stood alone, and just the idea of it lurking underwater kept the Indian Western Fleet stuck in Bombay harbor. Come 1971, Ghazi rolled out to the Bay of Bengal, aiming to sink the Indian aircraft carrier INS Vikrant and lay mines along the eastern coast. But on the night of December 3–4, 1971, it went down off Visakhapatnam.
