[amp_mcq option1=”PQRS” option2=”QSRP” option3=”RSPQ” option4=”SRPQ” correct=”option4″]
The correct answer is: D. SRPQ
The correct sequence of the sentences is:
- Savita was lonely in the house.
- She sat all day in a little room off the main drawing room.
- It was a little room with nothing in it but a few chairs and a rug.
- She would sit on the rug and do needle work.
- It was the only thing she had learnt from the Convent school.
The sentence “Savita was lonely in the house” is the most general sentence, and it sets the scene for the rest of the paragraph. The sentence “She sat all day in a little room off the main drawing room” provides more detail about Savita’s situation, and it also introduces the little room where she spends her time. The sentence “It was a little room with nothing in it but a few chairs and a rug” further describes the little room, and it also provides a contrast to the main drawing room, which is likely to be a much larger and more luxurious room. The sentence “She would sit on the rug and do needle work” provides more information about Savita’s activities, and it also shows that she is trying to occupy her time and make the best of her situation. The sentence “It was the only thing she had learnt from the Convent school” provides the final piece of information about Savita, and it shows that she is a skilled needleworker.
The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the logical order of the sentences. For example, option A (PQRS) starts with the sentence “She would sit on the rug and do needle work”, which is not the most general sentence. Option B (QSRP) starts with the sentence “It was a little room with nothing in it but a few chairs and a rug”, which is not the most general sentence. Option C (RSPQ) starts with the sentence “It was the only thing she had learnt from the Convent school”, which is not the most general sentence.
