    Question

    Given below are six sentences of a paragraph. Sentence A is the beginning whereas sentence F is the last sentence of the para. The middle four sentences are jumbled up. Select the option that gives their correct order forming a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
    A. It was midday.
    B. Voldyrev, a tall country gentleman with a cropped head and prominent eyes, took off his overcoat, mopped his brow with his handkerchief, and went into the government office.
    C. "Where can I make an inquiry here?" he said, addressing a porter who was bringing a trayful of glasses from the furthest recesses of the office.
    D. Voldyrev coughed and went towards the window.
    E. "To that one sitting near the window!" said the porter, indicating with the tray the furthest window.
    F. There, at a green table spotted like typhus, was sitting a young man with his hair standing up in four tufts on his head, with a long pimply nose, and a long faded uniform.

    A.

    BCED

    B.

    BDEC

    C.

    ECDB

    D.

    CBED

    Correct option is A

    Option (a) is the correct order of the given sentences.
    · Sentence B logically follows Sentence A, introducing Voldyrev and his actions as he enters the government office.
    · Sentence C follows B, where Voldyrev asks a porter where he can make an inquiry, continuing the sequence of events.
    · Sentence E then follows, with the porter responding to Voldyrev and indicating the person sitting near the window.
    · Sentence D comes last in the middle section, as Voldyrev moves towards the window, which smoothly transitions into Sentence F describing the person sitting there.
    This order ensures a coherent and logical flow of actions and dialogue, connecting Voldyrev’s movements and interactions seamlessly.
