Section A (Reading Comprehension)
Read the passage given below.

The Rubik’s cube was invented in 1975 by Erno
Rubik, an Architecture Professor at the Budapest School of Commercial Art, in Hungary. It is a six-sided multi-colored object that splits into three rows and three columns. Each row or column can turn a full circle of 360 degrees.

Thus, each side is made of nine squares. Each side of the cube has a certain colour and when the rows and columns are rotated, these colours then shift to another side.
The object of the game is to twist or rotate the

multi-coloured cube and find a way to get all the sides to have a uniform colour. The orange side should have all nine squares orange, another should have all white and so on.

The cube soon became a rage in Hungary. So, he contacted toy manufacturers in Europe and America. Ideal Toys contracted Rubik to produce it for the United States market. By 1980, the cube was the fastest selling toy in the market and shopkeepers couldn’t keep pace with the demand!
In 1980 alone, the cube sold over 4.5 million units!
