Key Points

  • The given question is an example of a  Para Jumble.
  • We know that the first statement of a para jumbled question is usually an independent general statement, a noun, a universal fact, starting off a story, starting of an incident or an event, or it starts with 'most' or 'once'.
  • In the given question, sentence A is the first sentence. And sentence F is the last one.
  • We have to rearrange the rest of the sentences accordingly.
  • Sentence A is the starting of an incident.
  • Sentence D will be the next sentence because it is connected with Sentence A. 
  • Sentence B will be the next sentence because Sentence D tells us that Velu's legs wobbled and because of this, he sat down on the nearby bench.
  • Sentence E will be the next sentence because after sitting down on the bench, he put his small bundle beside him on the bench and looked around.
  • Lastly, sentence C will be used because when he looked around, he saw a sight that he had never seen in all his eleven years.
  • Thus, the sequence becomes:
    • A: When the train pulled in at Chennai Central, it took Velu some time to get off.
    • D: When he finally stood on the platform, his legs felt wobble.
    • B: So, he sat down on a nearby bench that was unoccupied.
    • E: He put his small bundle beside him on the bench and looked around.
    • C: In all his eleven years he had not seen so many people except at the village fair.
    • F: Near him, a group of people sat on their luggage staring at a TV hanging from the roof.
  • Therefore, as per the points mentioned above, we find that the correct answer is Option 1.

Correct Sequence: When the train pulled in at Chennai Central, it took Velu some time to get off. When he finally stood on the platform, his legs felt wobble. So, he sat down on a nearby bench that was unoccupied. He put his small bundle beside him on the bench and looked around. In all his eleven years he had not seen so many people except at the village fair. Near him, a group of people sat on their luggage staring at a TV hanging from the roof.

Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives.
Public opinion may be passive and false or active and real. It is claimed in theory that all governments are ultimately based on the opinion or sanction of the governed. But we find that in practice the people's rights are often trodden down and tyranny and oppression are allowed to continue. The government does it not because the people want it to do so but because they are too idle, too uneducated and too disunited or timid to oppose the govern ment. Such public opinion is passive and false and not an active verdict. But when we find people alert, intelligent and determined to let the government know their will, when they want to exercise actively their voice in the management of their country, we have an instance of true or active public opinion. True public opinion is formed by and expressed through the press, the platform, political parties and educational institutions. These have sacred duties to perform, duties on which depends the ultimate good of the entire community. The press today wields a tremendous influence, So it should support the causes and move ments and condemn the wrong one's and thus teach people to form correct opinion. A free and fair press ventilates the grievances of the public. Thus a healthy relationship develops between the people and the government through out an unbiased press. Political parties also help to create and regulate opinions. No less important part is played by the educational Institutions which train the minds of the young people who will be the citizens of tomorrow. It has been said that modern Germany and China have been made by their universities. It is necessary that the young and the growing minds should imbibe the spirit of fellow-feeling, the spirit of tolerance, the habit of compromise, and show due regard for the feelings and opinion of others without which a democratic society cannot function, let alone succeed. When there is true awakening of the people, we shall have the real and conscious public opinion. And justice will reign on earth and truly will the voice of the people be the voice of God.
