Question 163
MediumOriginal questionArrange the sentences in the right order to make a paragraph.
P. A good password is like a good lock: it should be hard for strangers to open.
Q. Short passwords, or ones made of your name or birthday, can be guessed in seconds.
R. Then, if one password is stolen, the thief cannot open everything else.
S. Long passwords made of several unrelated words are much harder to crack.
T. It also helps to use a different password for every account.
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
P opens with the comparison. Q gives the weak kind.
S gives the strong kind, T adds a second tip with "also", and R explains it with "then".
So the order is PQSTR.
Worth noting
PSQTR calls long passwords "much harder to crack" before the easy ones have been described.
