DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: C

Sentence B states the general idea: sporting heroes, like authors, have devoted followers. Sentence D follows it and develops the idea, saying that as tastes become more defined the fandom narrows and leaves little room for others. Sentence C then brings in the example, saying that Novak Djokovic has often suffered this fate (the little room), the word 'this' pointing back to D. Sentence A closes by explaining the case, in which Federer and Nadal were wildly popular while Djokovic was admired but not loved. So the order is B, D, C, A. The order starting with A or D has no introduction, and C cannot come before D, as 'this fate' needs an earlier mention. The answer is BDCA, option C.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: B

Sentence C introduces the event: the royal family ended King Charles's first birthday parade with a balcony appearance to watch a fly-past. Sentence A comes next, saying that they were cheered by the crowds who had gathered outside the palace (the pronoun 'they' refers to the royal family in C). Sentence B then describes the air display, the 70 aircraft that came after bad weather had cut short the fly-past at the coronation. Sentence D ends the paragraph, as 'it ended with the Red Arrows' refers to the air display. So the order is C, A, B, D. Starting with D or A gives no subject for the pronouns. The answer is CABD, option B.

Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
A. Only its sharp eyes moved, darting left and right as its nostrils twitched and it smelled dinner.
B. A huge lizard-like creature was hiding in the bushes.
C. A juicy little insect!
D. It was still as a statue, from the tip of its snout to the curve of its tail.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: D

The correct order is BDAC. Sentence B introduces the subject, a huge lizard-like creature hiding in the bushes, so it opens the paragraph. D then says it was still as a statue, which refers back to the creature. A continues with the detail that only its sharp eyes moved as it smelled dinner, and C closes with what the dinner is, a juicy little insect. Starting with A or C, as in the other options, would refer to its eyes or an insect before the creature has been named.

Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
A. For this event, prime ministers of all friendly nations have arrived.
B. Today and tomorrow, the Greater East Asia Conference is taking place in front of the Japanese parliament, the National Diet Building.
C. An impressive stage has been set up in front of the steps of the building with large chairs festooned in red, yellow and golden colours.
D. Japan’s General Tojo, Thailand’s Prince Wan Waithayakon, Burma’s Ba Maw, and so on.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: C

The correct order is BCAD. B sets the scene by naming the event, the Greater East Asia Conference in front of the Japanese parliament. C describes the stage that has been set up in front of the building. A then says that prime ministers of all friendly nations have arrived for this event, and D lists the leaders, such as Tojo, Wan Waithayakon and Ba Maw, as examples of those arrivals. Placing A before the event is named, as in the other options, leaves 'this event' without a reference.

Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
A) Building software entails a lengthy and exhausting process of writing algorithms that allow the computer to solve real-world problems.
B) For example, the algorithm to find the area of a rectangle is to multiply its breadth and length.
C) Similarly, there are algorithms to predict weather, recommend movies, process credit card payments, and more.
D) Every piece of software that we are surrounded by is made of instructions or code that people wrote down and that computers follow.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: A

The correct order is DABC. D opens by saying that every piece of software around us is made of instructions that people wrote down. A then says that building software means writing algorithms for the computer to solve real-world problems. B gives an example of an algorithm, the area of a rectangle, and C extends it with more examples introduced by 'Similarly'. So 'D A B C' follows from general statement to example. Starting with C or A leaves 'Similarly' or 'algorithms' without anything to refer to.

Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
1) Nitrogen must go through changes akin to those that food goes through in our digestive system before plants may absorb life from the atmosphere.
2) Nitrogen needs to be transformed because it is insoluble and useless in its airborne state.
3) Lightning initiates the chain of chemical processes that must take place for nitrogen to replenish our planet.
4) There are over 22 million tonnes of nitrogen floating over each square mile of the globe, which is a plentiful resource and a necessary meal for plants.
5) Lightning is one of nature's most striking instances of a bad wind blowing good.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: B

The order is 5 3 4 2 1. Sentence 5 introduces lightning as an example of a bad wind blowing good. Sentence 3 says lightning starts the chain of chemical processes for nitrogen. Sentence 4 states that there is much nitrogen in the air, sentence 2 says it must be transformed because it is useless in its airborne form, and sentence 1 says what that change is like. Orders that begin with 3 or put 4 before 3 do not follow this chain of ideas.

Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.

A. Children however, loved it for its size and said, "Oh, how pretty he is! What a nice little Pine!"
B. But the little Pine wanted so very much to be a grown-up tree.
C. Out in the woods stood a nice little Pine tree.
D. The place he had was a very good one; the sun shone on him, and round him grew many large-sized comrades, firs as well as pines.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: A

The correct order is C, D, B, A. Sentence C introduces the little Pine standing in the woods, and D describes the place he had, with sun and tall comrades around him. B then gives his wish to be a grown-up tree, and A ends with the children who admired him for his small size.

The option beginning with B starts with a wish that refers to the Pine before he has been introduced. In CADB the children's remark comes before the description of the place and the Pine's wish, and BACD also starts with the wish. Only CDBA keeps the introduction, setting, wish and contrast in order.

Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
A. Without balance, much of the beauty and grandeur of our existence is lost.
B. But a balanced life doesn't just happen.
C. Bringing your life into equilibrium requires focused awareness and daily retreat from the stresses of the world.
D. Living in balance is vital to our well-being.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: A

The order is DABC. D opens the paragraph by stating the general idea: living in balance is vital to well-being. A follows because it says what happens without balance, so it extends D. B then turns to the next point, that a balanced life does not just happen, and C closes by saying what it takes, namely focused awareness and a daily retreat from the world's stresses.

BACD and BDAC start with ‘But’, which needs an earlier sentence to contrast with, and DBAC puts the ‘But’ sentence before the consequence in A that D leads to, which breaks the link between D and A.

A. It facilitates the development of a high-quality and technologically competent workforce.
B. India needs more of such research parks.
C. It does this by providing opportunities for students to work in the companies in the park.
D. The IIT Madras Research Park, established in 2006, is modelled on the famous Stanford Research Institute.

Exam Year(s)

DSSSB PGT - 2023,

Answer: B

The order is DACB. D introduces the subject, the IIT Madras Research Park, its date and its model. A says what the park does (it supports a high-quality workforce), and C explains how with ‘It does this by’, which must directly follow A. B, ‘India needs more of such research parks’, is the concluding remark.

DBAC, DCBA and DABC each break either the A-then-C link or put the general remark about India before the parks have been described.
