In this section, each item consists of six sentences. The first and sixth sentences are marked as S1 and S6. The four sentences between S1 and S6 have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. This is followed by four options, each suggesting a sequence of sentences. Identify the most appropriate option and mark your response on the Answer Sheet accordingly.
S1: Of course, it is silly to try to overcome fears that keep us from destroying ourselves.
S6: The only fears you need to avoid are silly fears which prevent you from doing what you should do.
P: This is sensible.
Q: You wait until it is out of the way before crossing.
R: You need some fears to keep you from doing foolish things.
S: You are afraid of an automobile coming rapidly down the street you wish to cross. The proper sequence should be
- APRSQ
- BRSQP
- CRPSQ
- DPQRS
Explanation
‘R’ will be the first part of the given sequence as it is referring ‘fears’ mentioned in the opening phrase S1. SQ will make a pair together as ‘S’ talks about the fear of crossing the street and ‘Q’ talks of the time duration of crossing the street, that is, when the automobile is out of the way. ‘P’ will follow next as ‘this’ is use in the context of ‘need some rears to keep foolish things away’. Hence, RSQP is the correct sequence. Thus, option (b) is correct.
