The five sentences labelled (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) given in this question, when
properly sequenced , form a coherent paragraph . Each sentence is labelled
with a number. Decide on the proper order for the sentences and key in
this sequence of five numbers as your answer.
1. The implications of retelling of Indian stories, hence, takes on new meaning in a modem India.
2. The stories we tell reflect the world around us.
3. We cannot help but retell the stories that we value - after all, they are never quite right for us - in our time.
4. And even if we manage to get them quite right, they are only right for us - other people living around us will have different reasons for telling similar stories.
5. As soon as we capture a story, the world we were trying to capture has changed .
Let's look at introductory sentence and likely pairs to form meaningful paragraph.
Sentences 3 and 4 clearly form a pair, as sentence 3 discusses the retelling of stories and how it can go wrong, and sentence 4 begins with a connector saying that even if it goes right, the meaning can be changed.
Sentence 2 sounds like a decent opening, as it lacks a connector and introduces the idea that the stories we tell reflect the world around us.
Between sentences 1 and 5, 5 is the more appropriate follow-up of the opening sentence, as it builds on the point of sentence 2 and has no final connector; sentence 1 ends with 'hence', thereby concluding a point, so it is best suited to be the last sentence.
Therefore, the sequence is 25341
