Question 39

Which of the following should be the FIFTH sentence after rearrangement?

Solution

Sentence E introduces the topic of the paragraph, thus it should be the first sentence. Sentence A further talks about how child labour reflects badly on society and how society is not able to stop it. So, A follows E. Sentence F talks about the condition of poor households that is further continued in sentence D which tells us why these households send their children to work. Sentence C concludes that child labour can't be tackled unless socio-economic status of the poor families is improved. Hence F-D-C should come together. Sentence B concludes that elimination of child labour is an impossible task considering the current socio-economic scenario. Thus, it should follow C. So, the correct sequence is E-A-F-D-C-B.

Thus the fifth sentence is C.
