Q1. Directions to Solve: In the question below, each passage consists of six sentences. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning. The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labeled as P, Q, R, and S. Find out the proper order for the four sentences.
S1: In the middle of one side of the square sits the Chairman of the committee, the most important person in the room.
P : For a committee is not just a mere collection of individuals.
Q : On him rests much of the responsibility for the success or failure of the committee.
R : While this is happening we have an opportunity to get the ‘feel’ of this committee.
S : As the meeting opens, he runs briskly through a number of formalities.
S6: From the moment its members meet, it begins to have a sort of nebulous life of its own.
The Proper sequence should be:
- RSQP
- PQRS
- SQPR
- QSRP
EXPLANATION
The correct option is 4.
Q should be placed after S1, since it describes the responsibilities of the chairman. And then S, as it contains some more information about the chairman. Then R and then P. So, the proper sequence that can be formed is Q-S-R-P.
