Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. DCBA.
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 D is the independent sentence and introduces the topic under discussion which is the aim of efficient management. So, sentence D is the first sentence after rearrangement.
- Sentence C which talks about what the qualitative improvement includes should come in the second position. Hence, C follows D.
- Sentence B talks about the benefit of better skills that efficient management can help employees to acquire. this comes in the third position.
- Sentence A is the concluding sentence as it points out how all the other aspects help an organisation to prosper.
- Thus, the correct order after rearrangement is option 1 i.e. DCBA.
The paragraph is: Efficient management aims at qualitative improvement of its employees. This includes multiplication of knowledge and development of their skills. Better skills increase the working capacity of employees by promoting better work habits. The promotion of congenial relationship at all levels of the staff leads to prosperity of the organisation.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 1 i.e. DCBA.
