Place, Plain, Plane, Player, Plenty

Sharp, Shock, Snooker, Socks, Sound

Arranging the words alphabetically:

1. Hawker
2. Heaven
3. Hillock
4. Hilt
5. History

There are five words in total, so the word in the middle would be the third word when arranged alphabetically.

So, the word in the middle is "Hillock" (Option B).

Arranging the words alphabetically:

1. Parasite
2. Party
3. Paste
4. Petal
5. Prick

Now, let's find the word that comes in the middle. Since there are five words, the middle word will be the third one.

So, the word in the middle is "Paste" (Option D).

To solve this question, let's arrange the given words in alphabetical order:

1. Acquire
2. Amazed
3. Disturb
4. Reprimand
5. Reverence

Since there are five words in total, the word in the middle would be the third word when arranged alphabetically.

So, the word in the middle is "Disturb" (Option E).

-NA-

7th letter to the right of 3rd letter from the left => 10th letter from the left. After changing the word becomes as follows :D  E  T  N  E  D  E  C  E  R  P  N  U

- - - - -

- A - - -

Let's analyze the given information step by step:

1. A becomes third when arranged in descending order of weight from top.
2. E is between D and A.
3. C and D are not at the top.

From point 1, we know that A is not the heaviest since it's third from the top.

From point 2, we have two possibilities:
a. E is between D and A
b. A is between D and E

However, since A is already stated to be third from the top, option b is not possible. So, we proceed with option a.

From point 3, we know that C and D are not at the top. So, it implies that either B or E could be at the top.

Given that A is not the heaviest and C and D are not at the top, the order from top to bottom could be:

• B, E, D, A, C
• E, B, D, A, C

In both cases, C is second in descending order of weight.

So, the correct answer is (A) C.

The new set of letters are :N, E, A, U. Hence no meaningful word can br made.

To solve this problem, we need to select the third (R), fifth (H), sixth (A), and eleventh (E) letters from the word MERCHANDISE, and then form words using each letter only once.

The selected letters are R, H, A, and E.

Now, let's form words using these letters:

1. HEAR
2. HARE

Both words are meaningful and fulfill the conditions given in the question.

Now, we need to find the third letter of these words:

1. HEAR - The third letter is E.
2. HARE - The third letter is R.

As there are two possible words with different third letters, the answer is 'T'. So, the correct option is (E) T.
