Question 55

Go through the statements below and answer the question that follows.

A. Maybe you have survived major trauma and have a hard time feeling safe.
B. You’ll probably discover that your fear and struggles make sense on account of what you’ve lived through.
C. Instead of beating yourself up for reacting in ways you don’t understand, you can develop compassion for yourself and what you’ve been through.
D. Perhaps you have experienced a sudden death, and you are often anxious about the health of your loved ones.
E. You may also find out that you have more strength than you knew, the same strength that has sustained you this far.

Which of the following combinations is the MOST logically ordered?

Solution

B-A-D-C-E is the most logically coherent order.

Statement B acknowledges the person's struggles but immediately offers a hopeful outlook by suggesting there's an explanation. This sets the context for the discussion to be followed.

Statement A logically follows B as it introduces the possibility of past experiences impacting the person's current state. It doesn't jump straight to trauma but presents it as a potential reason.

Now, In statement D, a specific example of past trauma (sudden death) is linked to a current fear (anxiety about loved ones' health). This builds on A by providing a concrete illustration.

Statement C then encourages the person to understand their reactions rather than blaming themselves. It follows logically after exploring the possibility of past trauma and its connection to current struggles.

Statement E circles back to the initial idea of strength (from statement B). It highlights the person's resilience by acknowledging the strength they've already shown in overcoming past challenges.

This order creates a supportive and logical flow. It starts with hope, explores reasons behind the struggles, encourages self-compassion, and ends by reinforcing the person's inner strength.
