Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (D)
The sentence starts by stating that a strong fleet was indeed necessary. Therefore, the missing part of the sentence should explain why a strong fleet is necessary.
B starts with ‘for the French king had’. Part B continues the given part of the sentence by providing a reason. Part B should be followed by part A, which in turn should be followed by part C.
A strong fleet was necessary since the French King had decided to attack.
BAC is the correct order and hence, option D is the correct answer.
2) Answer (C)
The given part should be followed by part B (explains where the custom was observed). Part B should be followed by part C (Chapel Royal is a part of St. James’s Palace). Part C should be followed by part A (elaborates on when the custom is observed).
BCA is the correct order and hence, option C is the right answer.
3) Answer (A)
On reading the parts, we can infer that the sentence is about the celebrations on the New Year’s eve.
The sentence begins with ‘whether it is meant as a farewell ceremony to the old one,’. Therefore, the part following the given part must continue this idea (must place another idea). Therefore, part A should follow the given part (The author states that he does not know whether the celebration is for the ending of the previous year or the beginning of the new one).
Part C should follow part A (irrespective of the reason, everyone parties on the day). B should be the last part of the given sentence.
ACB is the correct order and hence, option A is the right answer.
4) Answer (B)
’Drew a line’ can be followed by either C or A. If A follows, then B should follow A and C should follow B. Part C ends with a comma and hence, it is unlikely to be the last part of the sentence. Also, the ABC is not present among the given options. Therefore, part C should follow the part that has been given.
Part A cannot follow part C as there is no continuity between the 2 parts. Part A could have followed part C had there been a comma at the end of part A. Therefore, part B should follow part C.
CBA is the correct order and hence, option B is the right answer.
5) Answer (A)
The correct sentence is
Rishabh’s father had returned home, and had written to him saying that they were all coming to his hostel to see him on the following day.
Hence, option A is the correct answer.
6) Answer (B)
The correct sentence is
It was the first day of April, and a lovely morning, as Sonam was strolling slowly to school.
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
7) Answer (D)
The correct sentence is
There was a square plot of grass in the centre, where the boys used to amuse themselves during the intervals of school-work.
Hence, option D is the correct answer.
8) Answer (C)
The correct sentence is
I believe that Americans find it hard to understand the continued existence of our Upper House.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
9) Answer (D)
The given sentence is about the author’s experience of visiting the lake.
The first part of the sentence ends by saying that the water body was called as lake at Bly. Part B continues by saying that it was rightly called so. Parts A and C form a pair. The author admits that the lake was not as admirable as it appeared to his untraveled eyes.
The correct sentence is ‘We went straight to the lake, as it was called at Bly, and I daresay rightly called, though I reflect that it may in fact have been a sheet of water less remarkable than it appeared to my untraveled eyes’. BAC is the correct order and hence, option D is the right answer.
10) Answer (B)
The sentence is about how the author remembers the beginning. From the terms ‘flights and drops’ and ‘the right throbs and the wrong’, we can infer that the author had mixed feelings about the beginning.
Part C starts with ‘as a succession’. It answers the question ‘how did the author see the beginning?’. Therefore, part C should follow the part given. Part B should precede part A. Parts B and A just add more detail to part C.
The correct sentence is ‘I remember the whole beginning as a succession of flights and drops, a little seesaw of the right throbs and the wrong’. CBA is the correct order and hence, option B is the right answer.
11) Answer (D)
PQR
12) Answer (C)
By reading all the given sentences, we know that the paragraph is about the change of the name from natural history to natural sciences. Statement C is the opening sentence as it introduces the natural history and defines it. Statement A talks about the change of the name. So, it must follow the statement C. Statement B asks a question regarding the change of the name. So, it must follow statement A. Statement D is the reason for asking the question mentioned in statement B. So, statement D will follow statement B. Thus, the correct order is CABD.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
13) Answer (A)
On carefully reading the sentences we see that the topic of the discussion revolves around expeditions which can be undertaken if one is from the country. Thus sentence D which introduces the topic must be the starting sentence. In sentence C the author advices one to have the equipment to carry out activities which are mentioned in sentence D. Thus, C logically follow sentence D. Sentence A further gives information on how nice luncheon during the expedition would be the nice thing to do. Further sentence B give how the luncheon can be an exception. Thus AB is a pair and must come after sentence C.
Thus, the correct order of the sentence is DCAB.
Hence, option A is the right answer.
14) Answer (D)
On carefully reading the sentences we see that the topic of the discussion revolves around hunting of wild animals near Brandt lake. Thus sentence B which introduces the topic must be the starting sentence. Sentence A talks about deer being found which boys couldn’t hunt as it was against the law. Thus, A logically follows sentence B. Sentence C talks about another animal bear which was scarcely found, and sentence D gives an instance when one of the boys called Harry shot a bear but was punished for the offence. Thus, CD is a pair which logically follows sentence A.
Thus, the correct order of the sentence is BACD.
Hence, option D is the right answer.
15) Answer (C)
On carefully reading the sentences we see that the topic of the discussion is about regular work of Wally which was to light and maintain the glow of the lamp. Sentence A describes the regular routine of Wally to climb the light tower and start the lamp. ‘It’ in sentence C refers to the light tower which is introduced in A. Thus, AC is a pair. Sentence B further gives detail about how Wally maintained to continue the glow of light and sentence D warn about the circumstance if the process stated in B is not followed. Thus, BD is a pair and must come after introductory AC pair.
Thus, the correct order of the sentence is ACBD.
Hence, option C is the right answer.
16) Answer (A)
On carefully reading the sentences we see that the topic of the discussion is about Lucifer finding two ponies running away and he later trying to catch them. Sentence D introduces Lucifer and give details about hoe engaged he was in his work. Thus, D must be the starting sentence. Sentence A gives details about Lucifer being distracted by cloud of dust and sentence B gives details about what caused the clouds of dust to be formed. Thus, AB is a pair which must come after D. Sentence C finally states the action taken by Lucifer after he saw the two ponies running. Thus C must be the concluding sentence.
Thus, the correct order of the sentence is DABC.
Hence, option A is the right answer.
17) Answer (B)
On carefully reading the sentences we see that the topic of the discussion is about Wilbert digging hole in the ground to find water which he intended to bring down the hill. Thus, sentence C which introduces Wilbert and starts off the narration must be the starting sentence. Sentence B describes which spot did Wilbert start digging with the help of spade and sentence D gives details about his findings after digging. Thus, BD is a pair and must come immediately after C. Sentence A finally gives what was Wilbert’s plan after the water was found. So it must be the concluding sentence.
Thus, the correct order of the sentence is CBDA.
Hence, option B is the right answer.
18) Answer (C)
By reading all the given sentences, we know that paragraph is about a house. Sentence C introduces the topic. Sentence A should follow sentence C as it gives details about the house. Sentence B further describes the house. Sentence D is in continuation of what is mentioned in sentence B. Hence, the correct order is CABD.
19) Answer (D)
Here author wants to consider a hypothetical situation in when it is a case of invasion and outcomes. Thus, the sentence B which introduces the idea must be the starting sentence. Next action will be that the invaders would take possession and would fight with powerful emperors. Hence sentence A will come next. The author went on to discuss possible effects on daily life, therefore, option CD will become a pair as option D is elaborating the conditions. Therefore we can say that ‘BACD’ is the correct answer. (Answer :D)
20) Answer (B)
On carefully reading the sentences we see that the topic of the discussion is about the introduction of skating in England and the origination of skating. Sentence C talks about the introduction of skating in England, and sentence B adds on it by giving place from where skating must’ve been introduced. Thus, CB is a pair. Sentence D talks about origination of skating and states that necessity help it to come to existence and sentence A states the exact necessity which contributed to the origination of ice skating. Thus, DA is a pair. Further, D must come after B as the ‘inhabitants there’ in D refer to the people of ‘northern climates’ as introduced in B.
Thus, the correct order of the sentence is CBDA.
Hence, option B is the right answer.
21) Answer (C)
By reading all the given sentences, we know that paragraph is about Helen Harley. Sentence C must be the opening sentence as it introduces us to Helen Harley and what she is doing.

Hence, the correct order is CADB.
