Question 80

HardOriginal question

Arrange the sentences in the right order to make a paragraph.

P. Then the best ideas are chosen and put in an order that builds to a strong ending.

Q. Finally, the speech is read aloud many times, and every sentence that sounds wrong is changed.

R. A good speech is not written in one sitting.

S. The speaker first writes down every idea, without worrying about order.

CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. R opens with the main claim. S gives the first step with "first".

  2. P says "then", and Q says "finally", so they follow in that order.

  3. So the order is RSPQ.

Worth noting

RPSQ puts "then" before "first", which turns the steps backwards.
