The correct answer is "CADB".

Key Points

  • Sentence 'C' is independent of any other sentences as it is giving general information about "social media". Hence, 'C' is the first sentence.
  • The phrase "social media" mentioned in the sentence 'C' is linked with the word "viral" in the sentence 'A'. A introduces the example which was mentioned in C. Hence, 'A' follows 'D'.
  • The pronoun "its" mentioned in the sentence 'D' refers back to the "Baba ka Dhaba" in the sentence 'A'. Hence, 'D' follows 'A'.
  • Sentence 'B' concludes the paragraph by giving information about the effect of viral video. Hence, 'B' is the last sentence.

    • Read the sentences attentively and try to comprehend the idea or theme of the paragraph and eliminate the irrelevant options.
    • Try to identify the opening (independent sentence) and closing sentences of the paragraph (concluding sentence).
    • Try to identify the mandatory pairs. Two sentences can be connected through various connectors and other determinants. Identify the pronouns connecting the sentences with each other.
