Given below are four jumbled sentences. Pick the option that gives their correct order. A: some of which have sides more than 65 feet long and weigh nearly 2,000 tons. B: Until now archaeologists have not been able to give a convincing explanation why, how and by whom the terrace Baalbek was built. C: However, Russian Professor Agret considers it possible that the terrace is the remains of a gigantic field. D: to the north of Damascus lies the terrace of Baalbek- a platform built of stone blocks, Correct Answer <p>DABC</p>

The correct answer is option 2) i.e. DABC.

  • D will be appropriate as first sentence after rearrangement as it starts with direction and introduction of subject 'lies the terrace of Baalbek'.
  • as former sentence is ending with a punctuation i.e., comma shows continuity of sentence in sentence A as here after 'which', description of the subject is given. Hence, A follows D.
  • Sentence B is the logical successor of sentence A as it talks about what the 'sub-editors', mentioned in sentence A.
  • Here, C will be appropriate as last sentence as with conjunction 'However' a contrary sentence starts which cannot be sub-editor of any other sentence. 

 

Thus, the correct arrangement would be: DACB.
