1)  Find proper adjectives to be used in blank spaces to make sentences  

   Meaningful

     Exceedingly Viscous Liquid is Solid

     Exceedingly Malleable Solid is Liquid

     Exceedingly  elongated ellipse orbit Planet is Comet

2) Following terms are misnomers for reasons given along with them

        Find correct term for each

A)   ‘Strength of Materials’ in which actual values of strengths is a mere  

addendum. Stress-Geometry

B)   ‘Dead-Load/ Live-load’ If dead bodies are stored will it be Dead-load?

        Any addable/removable load is ‘live’ it does not come in self-weight

C)   ‘Load-Bearing-Structure’: Every structure bears its own load

        ‘Wall Borne Structure’ is proper term for ‘load bearing’ Otherwise it   

     may be ‘Frame Borne’ & not ‘Wall Borne’

  D) Survival of the Fittest: Do ‘lesser fit’ not survive? 

        Lesser fit do survive.   

        Proper term should have been Elimination of the Vulnerablest

  E) Hydrogen Bomb: Will ordinary Hydrogen atoms fuse & release huge  

       energy?

    In fact it is Deuterium-Bomb which is artificially made isotope  

    of hydrogen

  F) Jig-Saw-Puzzle: Does it require a jig-saw to produce it?

    Nowadays it is press-cut in full piece. Its essential definition would be   

   “Different odd shapes can feel a plane rectangle if each piece comes at its   

   unique position”

 G) Civil Engineering: Is any non-military engineering, Civil?

       Construction Engineering would be proper term

 H) Specific Gravity: Does this talk about Gravity?

      No! Relative Density vis-à-vis Water

  I) False Ceiling: What is false about it?

       Qua Ceiling it is true. It is false qua Slab
