Correct Answer <div>DCBA</div>

The correct answer is 'DCBA'.

Key Points

  • Sentence D is the sentence that establishes the subject matter. Hence, it'll be the first sentence after rearrangement.
  • Sentence C gives details about the sequence which can happen after Sentence C. Hence, C follows D.
  • Sentence B is the logical successor of Sentence C as it says about the behaviour of the subject ‘I’. Therefore, B follows C.
  • Sentence A follows Sentence B as it helps to provide a conclusion to the paragraph.

Additional Information

  • There are three different types of Para Jumble questions.
  • In the first type, in the question, simply 4 or 5 sentences are given, which need to be rearranged into a paragraph.
  • In the second type, the opening sentence and closing sentence are already fixed.
  • In the third type, questions are asked after the jumbled sentences. This type usually only comes in banking exams.
     

Thus, the correct arrangement would be: DCBA.
