Fact, Inference, Judgment - Joyful Living

CAT 2006 Slot 1 · VARC · Medium · Verbal Ability

Classify the four sequentially ordered statements as Fact (F), Inference (I), or Judgment (J):

  1. So much of our day-to-day focus seems to be on getting things done, trudging our way through the tasks of living — it can feel like a treadmill that gets you nowhere; where is the childlike joy?
  2. We are not doing the things that make us happy; that which brings us joy; the things that we cannot wait to do because we enjoy them so much.
  3. This is the stuff that joyful living is made of — identifying your calling and committing yourself wholeheartedly to it.
  4. When this happens, each moment becomes a celebration of you; there is a rush of energy that comes with feeling completely immersed in doing what you love most.
