Question 32
EasyOriginal questionArrange the sentences in the right order to make a paragraph.
P. At last, he found it caught on a tree outside the post office.
Q. The kite floated away over the houses.
R. Sameer was flying his kite on the roof when the string snapped.
S. He ran down the stairs and chased it through three streets.
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
R opens: it names Sameer and what happened. Q says where "the kite" went.
S says what "he" did, chasing "it", and P is "at last", when he found it.
So the order is RQSP.
Worth noting
QRSP opens with "the kite floated away", before we know whose kite or what happened to it.
