Parts of a sentence are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the parts in the correct order to form a meaningful sentence.
A. The upper part of the river
B. Continuous rain on
C. Week, there had been
D. During the previous
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. DCBA.
The sentence starts with 'During the previous week' (D) because it sets the time frame for the action.
The phrase 'there had been' (C) follows to indicate an event that occurred in the past before another event.
'Continuous rain on' (B) describes the event, and finally, 'the upper part of the river' (A) completes the thought, specifying where the rain had an impact.
Correct sequence: D → C → B → A
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
