In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1. If you are a poet, you will have no difficulty seeing the cloud floating in this sheet of paper. P. So we can say that the cloud and the paper are inter-related. Q. That explains why the cloud is essential for the paper to exist. R.  If the cloud is not here, the sheet of paper cannot be here either.  S. If there are no clouds, there will be no rain; and if there is no rain, the trees will not grow; and if there are no trees, we cannot make paper. 6.  If we look into this sheet of paper even more deeply, we can see the sunshine in it.

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. SQRP.

  •  While arranging the parts of the sentence given in options, we have to find some grammatical and contextual connections between them-
    • The passage talks about clouds and paper. S follows sentence 1 as it tells and explains how clouds are related to paper.
    • Q is the logical successor of S as it refers to S. It says that cloud is essential for paper to exist because of their relation which is given in detail in S.
    • Next is R as it further tells what will happen if the cloud is not here.
    • Last is P as it starts with 'so', indicating that it should come after R.


Correct order- If you are a poet, you will have no difficulty seeing the cloud floating in this sheet of paper. If there are no clouds, there will be no rain; and if there is no rain, the trees will not grow; and if there are no trees, we cannot make paper. That explains why the cloud is essential for the paper to exist.  If the cloud is not here, the sheet of paper cannot be here either. So we can say that the cloud and the paper are inter-related.  If we look into this sheet of paper even more deeply, we can see the sunshine in it.

Straight As may be the wrong goal, suggests a new study that has determined learning is optimized when we fail 15% of the time. P. This is a concept that society has intuited for a long time, across a variety of domains — for instance, this just-outside-one’s-grasp learning is observable in video games, in which the player is encouraged or forced to a higher level of difficulty once a performance criterion has been achieved.  Q. In both cases, machines and animals learned the fastest when difficulty was such that the subject would be right 85% of the time and be wrong 15%. But researchers say their finding is likely applicable to humans.  R. Interestingly, it’s not a new concept — the “zone of proximal development,” a theory developed in the 1930s by psychologist Lev Vygotsky described the sweet spot of learning: when a student is faced with a challenge just beyond their ability to solve it alone. It’s a ‘Goldilock’s zone'. S. A ratio, developed by researchers at various universities was tested on computers via machine learning and applied to previous research looking into how animals learn.  6. If one is taking classes that are too easy and acing them all the time, then one probably isn’t getting as much out of a class as someone who’s struggling but managing to keep up.
