CAT 1999 | Question: 03

Question

Sentences given in each question, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is labelled with a letter. Choose the most logical order of the sentences from among the four given choices to construct a coherent paragraph.

• A. He was bone-weary and soul-weary, and found himself muttering, “Either I can’t manage this place, or it’s unmanageable.”
• B. To his horror, he realized that he had become the victim of an amorphous, unwitting, unconscious conspiracy to immerse him in routine work that had no significance.
• C. It was one of those nights in the office when the office clock was moving towards four in the morning and Bennis was still not through with the incredible mass of paper stacked before him.
• D. He reached for his calendar and ran his eyes down each hour, half-hour, and quarter-hour, to see where his time had gone that day, the day before, the month before.
  1. ABCD
  2. CADB
  3. BDCA
  4. DCBA

Answer 1

Option 2 CADB

Since option A,D starts with He we can't start paragraph with A D

Option B starts with To his horror without any information " whom his means " so  we can't start paragraph with B

Finally we have only one option that is 2

 

Comments

You are correct. But to be safe just go through the sequence of the sentences of the final choice to be double sure.
