Which of the following will be the FIRST sentence?
Answer: D
Correct answer: D
The FIRST sentence of the rearranged paragraph is D.
Correct sequence: D – A – B – C – E
How the paragraph builds:
- D states the thesis: intelligence and creativity are two different things.
- A offers the evidence - one evidence of this points back to that thesis.
- B restates the evidence: in other words, replicating is easy, creating is hard.
- C raises the complaint: these replicates are rated high and promoted over creators.
- E answers the complaint - creators may be slow at absorbing, but in the long term they hold the upper edge.
These replicates in C needs B before it, and E’s closing clause about creators gaining the upper edge reads as the reply to C’s unfairness.
