Question 1
Directions: In the passage given below words are given in bold, each followed by a number given in the brackets. Every word in bold has five alternatives. Find the word which best suits the place. If the given word suits the blank, mark 'no correction/change required' as the answer.
Cities have evolved into magnets of society, drawing great number of people who come looking for prosperity and the good life. This is possible because these unique sites have a vast pool of disbursed (1) talent and resources. Urbanisation is the dominant trend. The traditional resource banks — people, geography and culture — have entered a new dimension today, as newer information technology applications generate erroneous(2) data about cities, and algorithms providing deep insights into the activities of residents. Significantly, three out of four people will live in cities by mid-century. There has never been a better time to study the transformation of our living spaces. These are two notable works that trace specific examples of urban evolution (3).
The Promise of the Metropolis: Bangalore’s Twentieth Century by Janaki Nair - The book walks the reader through the social and geographical history of the city that launched the Indian software miracle. As the author contends, “no other contemporary Indian city allows us to track the passage from small town to metropolitan status within a few decades as well as Bangalore does.” What this reflective book traces well is the vicissitude (4) and cultural transformation with the many phases of the city’s development, beginning as two separate sections — one of which housed the general population, and the other, the Cantonment — and the merger of the two post-independence. If the economy was driven by a flabby (5) public sector first, the rise of IT as a driver of ‘clean growth’ brought wealth — but not without problems in the allocation of space between the affluent and those with a smaller share of the prosperity. We see that urban democracy is often not equitable. This is something to consider, as the focus of policy turns to smart cities.
