    HAT Test: Reading Comprehension Sample Questions:   The explosion of a star is an awesome event. The most violent of these cataclysms, which produce supernovae, probably destroys a star completely. Within our galaxy of roughly 100 billion stars the last supernova was observed in 1604. Much smaller explosions, however, occur quite frequently, giving rise to what astronomers call novae and dwarf novae. On the order of 25 novae occur in our galaxy every year, but only two or three are near enough to be observed. About 100 dwarf novae are known altogether. If the exploding star is in a nearby part of the galaxy, it may create a “new star” that was not previously visible to the naked eye. The last new star of this sort that could be observed clearly from the Northern Hemisphere appeared in 1946. In these smaller explosions the star loses only a minute fraction of its mass and survives to explode again. Astrophysicists are fairly well satisfied that they can accou...

HAT Test :All Types of HAT Analogies: What are Analogies?

  All Types of HAT Analogies:   What are Analogies?   In Analogy Questions, candidates are required to recognize the same relation between the pair of words (in given options) to the given pair of words (in capital letters). For Example:   1.       CONSENSUS : AGREEMENT A.     conundrum : obvious B.      ameliorate : improve C.      education : improvement D.     affect : effect   Consensus means agreement. So the relation between them is "same meaning (synonym)". Similarly, the relation between ameliorate and improve is also "same meaning (synonym)". Since, ameliorate means improve. Hence, (B) is an analogy to given pair of words (in capital letters). HAT ANALOGIES - SYNONYMS Synonyms Definition / Meaning RATIOCINATE : THINK DISAVOW : DENY ENIGMA : MYSTERY HAPLESS : UNLUCKY Rati...
