CTET PAPER II 2019 · PYQ · Reading Comprehension · easy
Which of the following has a scientific basis for it?
A.We should not walk under a ladder.
B.Number thirteen is inauspicious.
C.Talismans and charms always bring luck.
D.Fridays are as good as other days.✓ Correct
Explanation
The passage describes the first three (walking under ladders, the number thirteen, talismans and charms) as superstitions without scientific basis. In contrast, the idea that Fridays are no different from other days has a scientific (rational) basis because there is no evidence that any particular day brings bad luck. Hence option (4) is correct.
