Instruction Q.1 - 10

In questions below, each passage consists of six sentences. The first and sixth sentence are given in the beginning. The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labeled as P, Q, R and S. Find out the proper order for the four sentences.

  • S: Describes the Chairman's action as the meeting opens (running through formalities).
  • R: Refers to observing the committee's dynamics while these actions are taking place.

The Proper sequence should be:

  • Explains the dependence on mass.
  • Discusses the magnitude of force.
  • Concludes with Earth's attraction.

  • Q introduces the problem: A monster preventing land-water separation.
  • P follows with the god killing the monster and splitting its body.
  • R describes creating the sky from the upper half.
  • S details forming the earth from the lower half.

S6: Most people bore the shock bravely.

The Proper sequence should be:

Detailed Solution for Test: Ordering Of Sentences- 1 - Question 6

The fire starts with wind fanning it (Q), followed by the appearance of smoke (S1), which leads to people realising there is a fire (R). Next, passengers are alerted (P), and finally, flames emerge (S). Since the options do not include this sequence, none match.

Test: Ordering Of Sentences- 1 - Question 7

P: I really gave it up.

The correct sequence should start with S1, followed by:

  • P
  • Q
  • R
  • S
  • S6

Since none of the provided options (A-D) reflect this order, the answer is that none of the options are correct.

Test: Ordering Of Sentences- 1 - Question 8

S1: When a satellite is launched, the rocket begins by going slowly upwards through the air.

P: However, the higher it goes, the less air it meets.

Q: As the rocket goes higher, it travels faster.

R: For the atmosphere becomes thinner.

S: As a result there is less friction.

S6: Consequently, the rocket still does not become too hot.

The Proper sequence should be:

Detailed Solution for Test: Ordering Of Sentences- 1 - Question 8

The correct order is that as the rocket ascends higher (Q), it travels faster because it meets less air (P) due to a thinner atmosphere (R), leading to less friction (S), which prevents overheating (S6). Thus, the sequence after S1 is:

  • Q - Higher altitude
  • P - Less air resistance
  • R - Thinner atmosphere
  • S - Reduced friction
  • S6 - Prevention of overheating
