Para Jumbles Practice Quiz 5 | Sentence Rearrangement Quiz for IBPS, SSC, RRB

Solution: 

• Sentence C will be the first in the sequence as it is the only sentence that has a proper subject "people" in it. Other sentences use pronouns such as "they" and "those".
• D will be the next in the sequence as the word "even" is used to emphasize the point that "those who are employed, also waste their time". This makes CD a pair.Both sentences D and B have the word "office" in them, which also makes them connected.
• The use of "also" in A suggests that it gives additional information after B.

The correct sequence is CDBA.

After rearranging the sentences, the passage will be: We can frequently find a large number of people sitting here and there and doing nothing. Even those who are employed often come late to office and leave early unless they are forced to be punctual.  Once in office, they receive friends and relatives who call them any time without prior appointment. They also visit ailing friends and relatives, or attend to personal matters even during office hours.

Hence,option Dis the correct answer.

Solution:

• As the topic is introduced by sentence Q, it naturally becomes the first part of the passage.
• Part R presents a follow-up to the introduction by mentioning some details about Venice.
• Out of the remaining two options, option P tells a bit more about the city, while S mentions the fact that ‘lagoon’ and a part of the city are listed as UNESCO Heritage sites.As the first two sentences have talked about the city, it is natural for them to be followed by P, which in turn would be followed by S. As S seems like a conclusive statement, it fits the passage by coming in the end.

Thus, the correct sequence is: QRPS
