Question 59

The sentences given below, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is labelled with a number. Decide on the most logical order and enter the sequence of numbers in the space provided, for e.g., 1234.

(1) It mentions a video on TikTok that questioned an influencer’s possible views on the Israel-Palestine crisis.
(2) Social media has given us the expectation that every video, every tweet needs to be irreproachable and encompass the lived experiences of the audience.
(3) Should celebs always have a take, asks an article in a magazine.
(4) “Do you guys even care about the issue or do you care about influencers caring about the issue?”

From the first reading we can understand that either 2 or possibly 4 should begin the paragraph. Among the options, only sentence 2 is said to begin the paragraph, so we'll go with sentence 2. Sentence 1 cannot follow 2 because there is nothing for 'it' in sentence 1 to refer back to. Sentence 4 'do you care about the issues or influencers' take on the issues' cannot follow sentence 2 as the sentence only mentions live experiences of the audience (possibly 'issues') and not influencers'. Sentence 3 is better suited to follow 2 and then sentence 4 can follow 1. The most sensible sequence is, therefore, 2314, and option A is the correct answer.
