Arrange the jumbled words or phrases to make a meaningful sentence or a part of the sentence. A. I sow a seed. B. I saw the sapling. C. I saw the sprout. D. I saw the plant. A. ACBD B. DBAC C. CABD D. ABCD
Correct answer: A. ACBD
The sentence is:
I sow a seed. I saw the sprout. I saw the sapling. I saw the plant.
Explanation:
The sentence describes the natural growth process of a plant in chronological order. The correct sequence follows the stages of development:
Part A: “I sow a seed.”
This is the first step — planting the seed.
Part C: “I saw the sprout.”
After sowing, the seed sprouts first.
Part B: “I saw the sapling.”
The sprout grows into a sapling.
Part D: “I saw the plant.”
Finally, the sapling becomes a full plant.
Additional Notes:
• The sequence ACBD follows the natural order of growth: seed → sprout → sapling → plant.
• Other options either break the logical progression or place parts in an unnatural order.
52. Arrange the jumbled words or phrases to make a meaningful sentence or a part of the sentence. P. but he Q. was, in R. foolish person S. fact, a A. RSPQ B. SPQR C. PQSR D. QRSP
Correct answer: C. PQSR
The sentence is:
But he was, in fact, a foolish person.
Explanation:
Part P: “but he”
This begins the sentence with a contrastive conjunction and the subject.
Part Q: “was, in”
This follows the subject and starts the verb phrase, introducing the parenthetical expression.
Part S: “fact, a”
This completes the parenthetical phrase “in fact” and provides the indefinite article before the noun.
Part R: “foolish person”
This completes the sentence by providing the noun phrase that describes the subject.
Additional Notes:
• The sequence PQSR flows naturally and grammatically: “But he was, in fact, a foolish person.”
• Other options either break the logical flow or place parts in an unnatural order.
Arrange the jumbled words or phrases to make a meaningful sentence or a part of the sentence. Religion has been used — P. both as a weapon of isolation Q. to dull awareness R. about real problems like health and education etc. S. and as Morphia A. PSQR B. RPQS C. PQRS D. QPSR
Correct answer: A. PSQR
The sentence is:
Religion has been used — both as a weapon of isolation and as Morphia to dull awareness about real problems like health and education etc.
Explanation:
The “Both… And” Correlative Structure (P ➔ S):
The sentence sets up a parallel description of how religion is used. English syntax requires the correlative conjunctions “both… and” to pair together. Part P introduces the first comparison (“both as a weapon of isolation”) and Part S provides the matching second half (“and as Morphia”). This creates a rock-solid P ➔ S link.
Completing the Metaphor (S ➔ Q):
Calling religion “Morphia” (morphine/an opiate) is a famous philosophical allusion implying it is used to numb the mind. Part Q (“to dull awareness”) directly explains the purpose of this “Morphia,” linking seamlessly right after Part S.
The Object Modifier (Q ➔ R):
The noun “awareness” requires a preposition to clarify what people are unaware of. Part R (“about real problems like health and education etc.”) completes this thought perfectly.
When fully assembled in the sequence P-S-Q-R, the sentence forms a fluid, powerful statement:
“Religion has been used — both as a weapon of isolation and as Morphia to dull awareness about real problems like health and education etc.”
Direction: Put the jumbled words in the correct order to form a meaningful sentence. timely / your / am / help / I / for / thankful / really A. I am really thankful for your timely help. B. Your timely help I am thankful for really. C. Your help I am timely thankful for really. D. For your timely help I am really thankful
Correct answer: A. I am really thankful for your timely help.
Explanation:
Part I: “I am”
Subject and Verb:
The sentence begins with “I am,” which forms the subject and verb, introducing the speaker.
Rule: In English, the subject usually comes first in the sentence followed by the verb.
Part II: “really”
Adverb:
Next, we use “really” as an adverb to emphasize the speaker’s gratitude.
Rule: Adverbs often modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, and in this case, “really” emphasizes the level of thankfulness.
Part III: “thankful”
Adjective:
“thankful” is an adjective describing the speaker’s feeling of gratitude.
Rule: The adjective follows the verb to describe the subject’s emotional state.
Part IV: “for your timely help”
Prepositional Phrase (Object of Gratitude):
Finally, we complete the thought with “for your timely help”, explaining what the speaker is thankful for.
Rule: A prepositional phrase (with “for”) typically comes at the end, specifying the reason for the gratitude.
Additional Notes:
The sequence A. I am really thankful for your timely help follows the correct word order: subject + verb + adverb + adjective + prepositional phrase, making it a grammatically correct and meaningful sentence.
