Concept/Grammar rules |
Application |
|
The first sentence always introduces a topic and is independent in its meaning. Sentence D introduces the girl Jessica who is the topic of discussion and hence the 1st sentence. AC forms a mandatory pair here as what is said in statement A i.e. ‘like she didn’t exist’ is supported in statement C. |
Only option 2 has this pair AC. Hence, DACB is the correct sequence. |
