  • Question 1/10
    1 / -0

    Arrange these parts so as to form a complete meaningful sentence/paragraph and then choose the correct combination.

    (A) Over the years, we have seen experts working on bottom-up schemes to rejuvenate water bodies.

    (B) These non-invasive, local, large-scale projects till now have not been part of our living scheme.

    (C) In thoughtlessly build artificial infrastructure we are missing the essential point that this is our lifeline on the planet.

    (D) They are huge parasites on water, food, energy and all other resources.

    (E) Precious evolutionary living resources, natural infrastructure particularly water bodies are going extinct.

    (F) While these movements have brought a change at the local level, the problem scale is much larger.

    (G) Until now, invasive schemes such as dams used to service these large cities have caused ecological devastation.

    (H) Cities today are vast agglomerations that continue to spread, with bursting.

    Which of the following will be the SIXTH sentence?

    Solutions

    The correct logical order is ECAFHDGB.
    The passage is about water as a natural resource , its importance in our lives, ongoing scarcity and the effectiveness of the efforts being made to lose it all together. In this regard, E aptly opens the paragraph introducing the issue in hand. It is followed by C which has the pronoun ‘this’ used to refer to natural infrastructure which is a lifeline on the planet. AF forms a logical pair connecting the work being done by experts to revive water bodies but still falling short of the required. A follows F as connected by the term ‘water bodies’. HD and GB are logical pairs. The former speaks about the spreading cities and its impact on resources while the latter talks about the schemes and projects to take of the spreading cities needs.
