Read the passage below carefully and answer the question that follows:

Established in 1956 in Oshodi, Lagos State, the Federal Institute of Industrial Research, Oshodi (FIIRO) was initially designated as the Institute of Applied Technical Research. Founded under the auspices of the Federal Ministry of Science and Technology, the agency was tasked with accelerating the industrialisation of Nigeria through the research and development of local raw materials. In 1977, following a structural mandate review, the institution formally assumed its present name. Although FIIRO initially focused primarily on processing indigenous agricultural commodities such as cassava and sorghum, its operational charter was expanded in 1992 to encompass the fabrication of prototype industrial machinery and equipment. Funding for its primary research laboratories was originally supplied exclusively by the federal government until 2004, when public-private partnership grants were introduced.

According to the passage, which of the following statements correctly describes the operational history or funding of FIIRO?

  1. A
    The institution adopted its current name in 1992 following a structural mandate review.
  2. Public-private partnership grants began assisting in funding its primary laboratories in 2004.Cevap
  3. C
    The Institute of Applied Technical Research operated independently before being acquired by the Federal Ministry of Science and Technology.
  4. D
    Its initial operational charter in 1956 included the fabrication of prototype industrial machinery.

Cevap

Public-private partnership grants began assisting in funding its primary laboratories in 2004.
The correct option is directly corroborated by the final sentence of the passage, which explicitly establishes that prior to 2004, funding came exclusively from the federal government, after which public-private partnership grants were introduced.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the passage for explicit statements regarding FIIRO's funding and operational milestones.
Identified key facts: founded in 1956 under the ministry as Institute of Applied Technical Research; renamed FIIRO in 1977; charter expanded to prototype machinery in 1992; funded exclusively by federal government until public-private partnership grants were introduced in 2004.
Literal comprehension requires retrieving explicit facts directly stated in the text without extrapolation.
2
Evaluate each option against the explicit factual details retrieved from the text.
The option stating that public-private partnership grants began funding primary laboratories in 2004 directly matches the text statement: 'Funding... was originally supplied exclusively by the federal government until 2004, when public-private partnership grants were introduced.'
Matching verbatim or closely paraphrased factual assertions confirms the correct answer.
