Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentences C and B go together, as do A and D.
C refers to the fact that Greek was the language of the governing elite, hinting that the language of the governed was something else. B says “Greek rulers could neither speak the language of the people" elaborating on the same theme.
A and D both talk of the Rosetta Stone.
There is a link between B and A as well. B talks of fueling resentment while A elaborates on this by stating “Egypt was in open revolt"
Greece and Greek rulers is the common link between the sentences C, B and A which make sense when placed in sequence.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence D.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
The topic here is the unconscious mind. We can see straight away that sentence B is a promising first sentence. Let’s try to see if it can link this with 2 others. So we start off admitting that the unconscious mind makes us brilliant, and look for steps to benefit from it.
Option A has starts off with “you will know it has". It cannot be placed before or after B.
Option C refers to a step taken to interest the unconscious mind- working on it with the conscious mind. But it has an “instead" in it. So something precedes C.
Between A and D, D makes better sense before C, the flow being “The unconscious mind cannot be ordered about….instead…"
So we have the sentence order BDC forming a paragraph.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence A.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
To find out which sentence needs to be eliminated, we have to frame a paragraph with the other three and see if it is cogent. We can look out for keywords or thoughts that link all sentences together with one main idea.
Sentence A talks of developing “these different ways of thinking" by “extended, focused mental effort".
Sentence B talks of the “relatively brief period" students spend in a classroom, and “long term memory structures" required for subject mastery.
Sentence C talks of how a traditional science instructor teaches assuming “expert-like ways of thinking" are already present.
We can see right away that C and A go together, with the “way of thinking" being the key idea repeated in both sentences.
Sentence D talks of how the “necessary extended effort" can be made by students with some help from teachers.
Sentence A also talked of the “extended mental effort" students need to put in to develop expert-like thinking. So D ties in with A. The paragraph makes sense when arranged in the sequence CAD
Looking at B, we can reconfirm that it is indeed the sentence to be eliminated as it talks of “memory structure". This idea is not explained by any of the other sentences.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence B.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
To choose which sentence is to be eliminated, let’s first summarize the key idea of each option:
A- This is not nature fighting back; this is the way nature is
B- We have tried to make the “small, fast breeding creatures" extinct. We have tried getting bigger creatures- elephants and pandas- down to the last number. But these two cases are different
C- Though several species are getting extinct every day, it is not yet catastrophe.
D- We haven’t understood biological realities. We have become chief selector for enemy species, i.e, we are making the enemy species stronger by allowing only the most resilient to survive.
We can see from the simplification that sentences A and D are related. Both sentences talk of how we have misunderstood nature/biological realities.
A refers to nature "fighting back", that is resisting what we are trying to do. D indicates that the enemy species is getting stronger. We can see that if we arrange these sentences in the order DA it makes some sense.
So the idea is that we haven't understood biological realities and have become the "chief selector" of the enemy species. The fact that they are getting stronger is not nature fighting back. It is the way nature is.
So what is the third sentence that completes the paragraph?
Consider sentence C. It says we are making some species extinct but it is not yet catastrophe. This indicates that the species that is being reduced in number is not an "enemy" species.
Option B talks of how we are trying to make the “small, fast breeding creatures" extinct by bringing them down to the last number, and how this is not working. It fits in with A and D in terms of not understanding nature.
The sentence order for the paragraph is BDA. The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence C.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
The key ideas of the sentences are summarized as follows:
A - Fundamentalism and secularization always coexist. The secularization is seen as “violent, cruel and invasive" by the other side.
B- Historically, wherever an attempt was made to separate religion and politics, a counter-cultural movement sprung up.
C- Secularization came with colonial rule and was hence rejected in the developing world.
D- “Aggressive" secularism instigates a violent reply from religion.
It is clear from the above that while A, B and D only talk of secularism and fundamentalism, option C stands out as the one with a different idea- linking secularism with colonial rule.
The paragraph makes sense when put in the order ABD.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence C.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
This sentence elimination question is tricky.
Sentence B tells us that it is thought that the Harappan rulers were wealthy merchants or landlords or religious leaders who used seals and jewelry to show their power. Sentence C describes the seals referred to in sentence B. So B and C go together.
Sentence A talks of Harappan and other Indus art and sculpture not having any depictions of warfare. Sentence D also contains a reference to war. It states that the Harappan rulers governed their cities not using military muscle but through control of trade and religion. So, A and D go together.
Which idea is common to both sets of sentences? If the paragraph is about Harappan seals, either A or D should fit in as the third sentence, joining B and C to make a paragraph. Sentence A is clearly not the choice, as it is about the Indus art and culture not depicting warfare.
Sentence D is about how Harappan cities were governed. Neither fits in. Sentence D talks of Harappan rulers possibly governing their cities through control of trade and religion. Sentence B too refers to Harappan rulers, speculating that they might have been wealthy tradesmen or religious leaders. We have already seen the link between A and D.
Sentences DAB make sense when placed in order, the keyidea being Harappan rulers. It appears that the Harappan rulers governed through control of trade, not military might. Sentence A substantiates this, stating that there are no monuments or artifacts depicting warfare. So it is speculated that the Harappan rulers were wealthy merchants, who demonstrated their power not by military muscle but demonstration of wealth- fine jewelry and status symbols- seals.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence C.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence A talks of how well a reality show does in terms of viewership. Sentence B seems to carry forward that thought, stating that the “key" is for channels to find bankable reality formats.
Sentence C is unrelated to the idea that A and B share. Firstly it starts with a “then, again" and talks of “they" realizing that an easy way to gain ad revenue is to lure advertisers to reality TV.
Sentence D tells us that the year-on-year increase in production costs for reality shows has rattled networks. We see right away that D and C are related and that C follows D.
Sentence B that talks of bankable reality formats provides the third sentence to complete the paragraph, in the order DCB.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence A.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence A cites the example of China, where the World Bank has been important not “quantitatively" but as a source of “blueprints and information".
Sentence B tells us that multilateral development institutions play an important role in global infrastructure financing.
Sentence C talks of their greatest failures springing from “funding grandiose projects" that benefit those countries considered the current “elite".
Sentence D tells us that multilateral development institutions have been most successful as knowledge banks, sharing expertise.
We can see that sentences A and D are of the same idea. The example of China substantiates the point made by sentence D that multilateral development institutions are most successful as knowledge banks.
So which is the third sentence that fits in with A and D- B or C?
Sentence D talks of the greatest successes of multilateral development banks and sentence C tells us of their greatest failures.
Sentence B on the other hand stresses the importance of infrastructure financing by multilateral development banks, which does not relate to the main idea of the other two sentences- that the role of these institutions is more significant with regard to knowledge transfer.
DCA make a paragraph.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence B.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence A talks about the amount of e-waste generated around the world.
Sentence D talks about the largest producers of e-waste and how Asian cities are catching up.
Sentence B substantiates this point, giving the example of China as a huge consumer of electronic goods and hence generator of e-waste. So ADB make a paragraph.
Only sentence C, which talks about illegal dumping of e-waste, does not fit in with the rest.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence C.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence C talks of the details in poetry- that they should not only be precise, but also elicit and reward a “sense of movement".
We have two other sentences that relate to the sense of movement. Sentence B talks of the “image" of poetry existing both in space and time in “such movement".
Sentence A also relates to movement. It talks of the “special ointimacy" poetry has because the medium of poetry is the audience’s body.
We see that sentence B develops the idea presented in sentence C. B follows C.
Sentence D describes poetry as a “centaur", where the thinking faculty must “move and leap" with the sentient and musical faculties. Again, we see the key idea that poetry involves a sense of movement in sentence D. In fact, sentence C builds on the same idea as sentence D. C follows D.
Sentence A is one that talks about a new idea- the medium of poetry not being the expert’s body but the audience’s.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence A.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Three sentences- A, B and C- mention Sparta. It is important, however, to understand the context to see which sentence is to be eliminated.
Sentence A tells us that though Spartans were at war with Greece and dying, some of their countrymen were competing at that time at the Olympia.
Sentence C talks of how America, like Sparta, was represented at the Games while still fighting in Vietnam.
We see that there is a link between sentences A and C. Both talk of warring countries still competing at the Olympic Games. C follows A, as it compares America to Sparta. Now we need to look at a third sentence that will fit with these to form a paragraph. Sentence B tells that while troops were normally not allowed in the Olympic precinct, they were there in 420 BC, as war with Sparta was thought to be imminent.
Sentence B provides an example of an exception made to the Olympic rules at a time war was expected.
Sentence D talks of the cancellation of Olympiads in 1926, 1940 and 1944 due to world wars.
Of the two sentences above, we see that sentence D fits in with the idea of competing at Olympic Games while at war, discussed in sentences A and C. ADC forms a cogent paragraph.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence B.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence A talks of modern prose being a mix of vagueness and incompetence. Sentence D elaborates on the idea of “vagueness" talked of in sentence A, stating that in certain topics, the concrete melts into the abstract, and oft-used expressions abound.
Sentence C declares that prose is becoming less about words chosen for their meaning, and more about piling up pretentious phrases.
ADC makes a paragraph.
Sentence B starts off with “it follows that" and states that any struggle against the abuse of language is dismissed as sentimental and old-fashioned. None of the statements given offers a thought that would fit with the “it follows that" beginning of sentence B.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence B.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence B notes that Rowling wishes to influence how readers understand her books by revealing new information about her characters.
Sentence A talks of Rowling’s declarations on characters as being newsworthy and a “cause for pride".
Sentence D too talks of Rowling alluding to the characters in her books. However, it states that the meanings the international community of readers draws from the books trump or prevail over Rowling’s intentions as an author.
This ties in with sentence C which declares that Rowling’s chances of being a “diverse" author lie in the future not in the past.
BDC makes a paragraph.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence A.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence A declares that by legalizing gambling, consumers are assured of reliability, something they prefer when it is available.
Sentence D also favors legalized gambling, stating that it makes the market more hostile to cheaters. Sentence C supports this idea with the example of Britain.
The only sentence that argues against legalized gambling is sentence B, which states that it could lead to new ways of fixing games.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence B.

Method of solving this Question from Sentence Elimination:
Sentence A tells us that birds are modern descendants of dinosaurs and hence they are likely to have once had teeth.
Sentence C also talks of teeth, stating that “this fact" became known in 1861 with the discovery of Archaeopteryx, which had teeth. The fact referred to here is the one stated in sentence A, that birds once had teeth. So C follows A.
We now need to find the third sentence that fits in with C and A.
Sentence B says that non-avian dinosaurs sprouted feathers 100 million years ago.
Sentence D declares that researchers have discovered that avian edentulism, or loss of teeth, occurred in one common bird ancestor 100 million years ago.
It is clear that CAD makes a cogent paragraph.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Hence, the answer is Sentence B.
