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.
