Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. ABCD.
While arranging the parts of the passage, we should find some grammatical or contextual connections between them. Also, the first sentence of a passage is usually independent and introduces a topic. The second one provides more information about it.
Steps to arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph:
- Sentence A is the independent sentence and introduces the subject of the passage which deals with Information Communication Technology tools. So, sentence A is the first sentence after rearrangement.
-
Sentence A talks about how the tools have made changes. It should be followed by B which states the effects of these tools. Hence, sentence B follows sentence A.
- Sentence D talks about the overall result from the subject under discussion, therefore, it should come in the end. Sentence D is the concluding statement.
- Thus, the correct order after rearrangement is option 3 i.e. ABCD.
The paragraph is: Information Communication Technology tools have brought in additional changes along with means of communication. These changes have enabled man to communicate faster. Communication has not only become faster but easier too. The result is a more relaxed life than ever before.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 3 i.e. ABCD.
