Given below are four jumbled sentences. Pick one of the given options that fit in their correct order. A. “We are going to the market,” declared Reetu and Geetu. B. “Where are you going?” the father asked. C. “Take your umbrella, it is going to rain,” the mother said. D. “Yes, definitely. We will,” replied the two. Correct Answer BACD
The correct answer is Option 1.
From the given sentence, we understand that it is a conversation between mother, father and their two daughters.
The scrambled parts must be arranged logically to understand their entire conversation. It is important to establish a connection between these parts.
- Option 2 as the order suggests DCAB gives a reverse order of the conversation. Line D starts with an affirmative response, without any prior link to the dialogue. The paragraph thus cannot start with D. Thus it is ruled out.
- Option 3 as we consider, AB is an answer to the question followed by the question. This is a reverse order and hence the paragraph cannot start with D. Thus it is ruled out.
- The paragraph thus begins with B. It is an introduction to the conversation about 'where the girls are going'.
- A follows B. The response to the question is answered in A. It states 'the girls are going to the market'.
- C follows A. The mother tells the girls to carry an umbrella as it is going to rain.
- D follows C. It is the daughter's agreement 'yes we will...' to mother's statement.
Thus the correct order is BACD.
“Where are you going?” the father asked. “We are going to the market,” declared Reetu and Geetu. “Take your umbrella, it is going to rain,” the mother said. “Yes, definitely. We will,” replied the two.
