Question

Four sentences that are a part of paragraph are given below; the sentences may or may not be in the right order; create the sequence that forms a coherent paragraph.
1. The work is more than the text, for the text only takes on life, when it is realized and furthermore the realization is by no means independent of the individual disposition of the reader.
2. The convergence of text and reader brings the literary work into existence and this convergence is not to be identified either with the reality of the text or with the individual disposition of the reader.
3. From this polarity it follows that the literary work cannot be completely identical with the text, or with the realization of the text, but in fact must lie halfway between the two.
4. The literary work has two poles, which we might call the artistic and the aesthetic; the artistic refers to the text created by the author, and the aesthetic to the realization accomplished by the reader.

• A. 4312
• B. 4132
• C. 1432
• D. 1234

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To construct a coherent paragraph, arrange the sentences in the following sequence:

• A literary work possesses two key aspects: the artistic, pertaining to the author's creation, and the aesthetic, relating to the reader's interpretation.
• A literary work transcends its text; the text gains vitality only through realization, and this realization is invariably shaped by the reader's individual predispositions.
• Consequently, a literary work cannot be wholly equated with either the text or its realization; it exists as a midpoint between the two.
• The literary work emerges from the interaction between the text and the reader, an interaction distinct from both the text's inherent reality and the reader's personal disposition.
