A number of sentences are given which are denoted by (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv). By using all the sentences you have to frame a meaningful paragraph. Choose the correct order of the sentences from the alternatives.

(i) Now, under liberated economy, they are learning to compete domestically and globally.
(ii) In India, corporations until recently achieved success by avoiding competition, using protected and regulated domestic markets.
(iii) The trend is irreversible.
(iv) Business leaders are preparing themselves to meet competitive challenges and to avoid being swept away.

The Proper sequence should be

  • A.(ii), (iv), (iii), (i)
  • B.(ii), (iv), (i), (iii)
  • C.(iii), (iv), (ii), (i)
  • D.(ii), (i), (iv), (iii)

Answer: D

The proper sequence is (ii), (i), (iv), (iii).

Sentence (ii) opens with the background: Indian corporations once succeeded by avoiding competition in protected markets. Sentence (i) must follow directly, because its they refers to those corporations and its Now, under liberated economy contrasts with until recently. Sentence (iv) then describes how business leaders are responding, and (iii), The trend is irreversible, closes the paragraph with a conclusion.

Orders placing (iv) straight after (ii) leave they in (i) too far from what it refers to, and the order starting with (iii) opens with a conclusion before any trend has been described.
