The following sentences when properly arranged for a coherent paragraph. Answer the questions based on the correct order of sentences.

A. We have a firm belief that it will rise in the future, because it has risen in the past.

B. The interesting doubt is as to whether the laws of motion will remain in operation until tomorrow.

C. Of course it might be doubted whether we are quite certain that there is nothing outside to interfere, but this is not the interesting doubt.

D. If this doubt is raised, we find ourselves in the same position as when the doubt about the sunrise was first raised.

E. It is obvious that if we are asked why we believe that the sun will rise to-morrow, we shall naturally answer ‘Because it always has risen every day’.

F. If we are challenged as to why we believe that it will continue to rise as heretofore, we may appeal to the laws of motion: the earth, we shall say, is a freely rotating body, and such bodies do not cease to rotate unless something interferes from outside, and there is nothing outside to interfere with the earth between now and tomorrow.

A reward to the one who finds my leather purse”. (A character of beggar, merchant is introduced along with event of beggar having found a purse. Hence, this is the first sentence.)

(3) Being an honest man, the beggar came forward and handed the purse to the merchant saying , “Here is your purse . May I have my reward now?” (This will logically be the next sentence as now beggar will give the purse to merchant as merchant has lost the purse which he has found.)

(1) The merchant greedily counted his gold and said “The purse I dropped had 200 pieces of gold in it. You’ve already stolen more than the reward !

(E)Child labour is no doubt an evil that should be done away with at the earliest. (Here, premise of child labour is introduced and therefore this forms the first sentence.)

(A)Its prevalence reflects very badly on a society that is not able to stop this evil. (This will naturally be the second sentence, as there is continuation of explanation of the ‘evil’ of child labour.)

(F)But in a society where many households may have to suffer the pangs of hunger if the children are withdrawn from work beggars can’t be choosers. (Here, the most prevalent and primary reason for child labour is given. The paragraph is now taking turn towards explanation.)

(D)The members of these households have to send their children to work even if the future of these innocent children is ruined as that is the only choice open for them to survive in the world. (Again, further explanation is given.)

(C)Therefore unless the socio-economic status of the poor families is improved India has to live with child labour. (This should form penultimate sentence of the paragraph. Here, a sense of closure to the ongoing premise is apparent.)

(B)Though elimination of child labour is an impossible task considering the current socio-economic scenario of these poor families the Indian government is committed to the task of ensuring that no child remains illiterate hungry and without medical care. (This will form the last sentence of the paragraph mainly because it offers a sense of closure to the idea.)

Hence option E is correct.
