CAT 2024 RC Practice Questions with Answers

Given below are some CAT 2024 reading comprehension practice questions with answers:

I. Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:

FIFA World Cup took a bold step to remove the hijab ban after around five years of ruling against headscarves worn by female players. In 2012 March the new change was welcomed by the International Football Association Board, and voting was conducted for conducting tests of attractively designed head covers for a period of 4 months.

Though this wonderful decision took the players and the supporters with immense joy; however, it should not have been imposed in the first place. Well, according to some members of the FIFA board, the ban was imposed to safeguard the players as pins on the screws often pose danger when playing however people took it as an anti-muslim act.

While mentioning this incident at ABC Radio Australia, I pondered over a question that how a headscarf devoid of a pin could pose a safety threat to me or someone else, be it on a football field or swimming pool. Still, I wonder whether FIFA had no idea about the existence of headscarves for sports or not.

Iran has a peculiar rule that concerns granting permission to women to watch matches at stadiums however weirdly they allow women to be recruited into football teams. In Jakarta, which is known to be inhibited by the largest number of Muslims, people are highly obsessed with football. If the ban is imposed on Indonesia on match watching for women it might prove unfathomable. Looking at the kind of rights imposed on women in Iran or Indonesia indicate the way women are given unequal treatment when it comes to sports.

Q1. What was the reason for banning headscarves as cited by the Muslim community?

  1. FIFA banned headscarves in order to help female players from coming across any sort of injuries from the pins that were attached to the scarves.

  2. FIFA is a highly prejudiced organization that banned the headscarves as a step to hurt Muslim sentiments and promote anti-Muslim trends

  3. FIFA banned headscarves after consulting the women players and the decision was taken after voting from the members

  4. Both A and C

  5. Both A and B

Ans. B

Q2. How was the removal of the hijab ban conducted by FIFA? Choose correct response

A. FIFA took the decision to remove the hijab ban over a fortnight without any prior notice or consultation
B. FIFA had initiated a pilot plan of introducing the removal of hijab decision by voting
C. In 2012, FIFA introduced the newly designed headscarves and tested them for 4 months
D. The Hijab ban removal decision was taken after five years of constant struggles and petitions

  1. Option A is correct

  2. Options B, C, and D are only correct

  3. Option B is incorrect

  4. None of the above

Ans. 2
