Question 118

Choose the correct arrangement of the following jumbled sentence of a paragraph to make it coherent.
The first sentence is:
Barely a year had elapsed before the Pritzker clan began to squabble.
L. Under the plan he has until 2011 to distribute the assets among the heirs.
M. The family was no longer cohesive whole, they wrote and therefore the business needed the kind of transparency a public corporation might have.
N. A year later the family agreed on a giverning structure for the Pritzker Organisation, requiring Tom to open the books, hold annual meetings of family share holders and issue regular financial reports.
O. In summer 2000, Tom's two brother and a handful of his cousins sent a letter asking him to restructure the holdings.

Solution

Statement O will start the discussion as it begins with "In the summer of 2000" which continues from "Barely a year".

N will follow O as the "A year later" continues the idea in N.

M will follow N as it mentions how the family was no longer a whole as a result of the brothers writing the letter.

L will finish the discussion as it mentions what the new plan was going to do.

Thus, the required sequence is O-N-M-L.

The answer is option D.
