SSC Selection Post 2019 PYQ — Question 5

SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level 2019 - 17 Jan 2019 - Shift 1 • English • Q5

Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:

This new rolling carry-on from the American Tourister line was designed to solve one of your most vexing travel problems: being able to pack light enough on an outbound flight to avoid checking luggage, but having adequate room on the return for all the goods acquired on your journey.

Other expandable luggage may give you a few inches of extra space, but this one nearly doubles in volume and, amazingly, has rigid walls, even when fully expanded. The transformation is made possible by rock-solid hinges, which lock firmly into one of three positions. And, with a hardshell exterior that's faceted for strength, and you've got a suitcase that'll outwit even the most reckless baggage handler. The line goes on sale next month: Plan your itineraries accordingly.

What is NOT the unique feature of the product described in the passage?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3, i.e. It is the most preferred brand product among travellers.


Correct Answer: The passage talks about the features of a new suitcase — it is light, expandable, has rigid walls, rock-solid hinges, and a strong, hardshell exterior. It also mentions that it is from the American Tourister brand, which is famous and trusted.
But nowhere in the passage does the author say that it is the most preferred brand or that travellers like it the most. That is an extra detail not given in the text.


Line to refer: The passage describes the design and features, but does not talk about traveller preferences or the popularity of the brand.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
