In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct.
1. I got on a colourful bus filled with all kinds of strange people.
P. We arrived at a gate like the one in Salvador Dali's paintings.
Q. The bus rode across the dirty expanses without roads.
R. At first, I wasn't aware that the bus roof was loaded with drugs.
S. Everyone was filled with dust and often the wheels would sink into the soft soil.
6. It was a gate neither separated nor connected anything from or to anything.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. QRSP.
- As the statement Q is explaining further about the bus so it will come after 1 and will be the first sentence.
- As the statement R starts with 'at first" is will come after Q.
- Statement Q will be the last sentence as it tells about the reaching at the destination.
- So we need to keep the part S before Q.
- Now the final arrangement will be QRSP so it will be correct.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
