• [(B)] She worked hard to complete the project on time
• [(C)] Meena was assigned a project in the class
• [(D)] She presented it confidently before everyone

Show Hint

When arranging sentences, first identify the sentence that introduces the subject. Then place the remaining sentences according to the natural sequence of events and pronoun references.
  • C B D A
  • B C D A
  • C D B A
  • B D C A
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation


Step 1:
Identify the opening sentence. Let us examine the sentences:
• (A) begins with “The teacher”
• (B) begins with “She”
• (C) introduces “Meena”
• (D) begins with “She” The pronoun “She” used in sentences (B) and (D) must refer to someone already introduced. Sentence (C) introduces the main character, Meena. Therefore, \[ {\text{Sentence (C) must come first}} \]

Step 2:
Determine what happens after the project is assigned. Sentence (C) states: Meena was assigned a project in the class. After receiving the project, the natural next step is to work on it. Sentence (B) states: She worked hard to complete the project on time. Thus, \[ C \rightarrow B \]

Step 3:
Identify the next event. Once the project has been completed, it can be presented. Sentence (D) states: She presented it confidently before everyone. The word “it” refers to the project completed in Sentence (B). Therefore, \[ C \rightarrow B \rightarrow D \]

Step 4:
Determine the concluding sentence. After Meena presents the project, the teacher evaluates her work. Sentence (A) states: The teacher appreciated her efforts. This naturally serves as the conclusion. Hence, \[ C \rightarrow B \rightarrow D \rightarrow A \]

Step 5:
Match with the options. The sequence obtained is: \[ {C \rightarrow B \rightarrow D \rightarrow A} \] which corresponds to: \[ {\text{Option (A)}} \] Conclusion: The logical sequence of events is: \[ {C \rightarrow B \rightarrow D \rightarrow A} \] Therefore, the correct answer is: \[ {\text{Option (A)}} \] “Meena was assigned a project in the class. She worked hard to complete the project on time. She presented it confidently before everyone. The teacher appreciated her efforts.”
