SSC Stenographer 2024 PYQ — Question 4

SSC Stenographer - 11/12/2024 (9:00 AM to 11:00 AM) • English • Q4

Parts of a sentence are given below in jumbled order. Select the option that gives their correct logical sequence and forms a meaningful sentence.

The initial days / are not (P) / of my high school (Q) / to remember (R) / very good (S).

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Q, P, S, R

Q (of my high school)

P (are not)

S (very good)

R (to remember)

When placed in logical order along with the phrase 'The initial days,' the sentence becomes:

“The initial days of my high school are not very good to remember.”

This sentence is grammatically correct and clearly expresses that the early days in high school were not pleasant or memorable.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Option 2 (P, R, S, Q):
→ “are not to remember very good of my high school” (ungrammatical and confusing)

Option 3 (R, Q, P, S):
→ “to remember of my high school are not very good” (awkward structure and misplaced infinitive)

Option 4 (P, S, R, Q):
→ “are not very good to remember of my high school” (order is off; relationship between phrases is wrong)
