The four sentences (labelled 1, 2, 3, and 4) given below, when properly sequenced, would yield a coherent paragraph. Decide on the proper sequencing of the order of the sentences and key in the sequence of the four numbers as your answer.
1. But man, woman or otherwise, there is no denying that the quality of our life and character will be significantly shaped by the way we handle our anger.
2. Once the taboos have been broken, women usually experience letting their fists fly as intensely liberating.
3. Though this might seem a stereotype, women—unlike men, who are frequently applauded for unbridled aggression—are often socialized to keep a lid on their ire.
4. Many of them are so at odds with their aggressive feelings that, as a coach, I often have to stop them from pulling their punches and encourage them to extend their arms so their blows might actually reach their fleshy target.
Correct Answer: 3421
The four sentences talk about how women are socialised to hold back anger, how this affects their relationship with aggression, how letting go of that restraint can feel liberating, and how dealing with anger shapes character and life for everyone, not just women. To figure out the correct order, we need to see how the ideas logically build.
Sentence 3 is the natural starting point because it introduces the central observation that women are often taught to hold back anger, while men’s aggression is more accepted. Sentence 4 comes next, giving a real-life example from a coach’s point of view to show how deeply this lesson is internalised. Sentence 2 follows by describing what happens when these rules[taboos] are broken, explaining the feeling of liberation that comes from expressing anger. Sentence 1 is the best ending because it moves beyond the gender-specific discussion and generalises, saying that how we handle anger shapes our character and our overall quality of life. Hence, the correct sequence is 3421.
