Question 81

Identify the correct order of the following statements to make a coherent paragraph.
The lead sentence has been given.
The workers needed their concerns addressed immediately and would not budge.

A. The management was reluctant to capitulate since this would mean a sharp decline in the share market.
B. The workers, in fact, had been agitating for safety measures for a long time.
C. The workers were at fault, they felt.
D. The number of accidents in the factory had, however, risen disproportionately in the last few months.
E. The accidents were a concern and if the trend continued would pose problems, but
there had been no deaths.

Solution

Statement B is the opening statement as it builds on the lead sentence stating that workers were agitated for some time.

Statement E follows B as it explains the reason for the workers to be agitated.

Thus, the only possible answer is option A.
