Question
Which of the following is the fourth sentence of the
passage? Six statements are given below, which are jumbled in any random order. These statements will form a coherent and meaningful paragraph, when arranged in the correct sequence. Arrange the sentences in the right order and answer the questions that follow. (a) Mr. Kirmani, who has already earned a name for himself by displaying Kashmir-influenced couture at premier fashion shows, is creating pashmina wall hangings with different embossing techniques. (b) He said that the calligraphic work was challenging, and in the artwork, Quranic verses were written without diacritics. (c) He has reinvented his hallmark geometrical works that were influenced by the 'khatamband', a decorative pattern on woodwork used to design ceilings of houses and houseboats in the valley. (d) For centuries, Kashmir's exquisite, intricately woven pashmina shawls have been expensive party wear or tucked away on the shelves of the elite as a part of rare collections. (e) He is also using a new geometrical technique to re-introduce the Kufic style of calligraphy that saw its advent in Iraq during the period of Hazarat Ali. (f) Now, Srinagar-born fashion designer Zubair Kirmani is adorning walls with eye-catching, ultra-fine pashmina shawls.Solution
The correct order of the sentences is d, f, a, c, e and b . Here, d gives the introduction and it is definitely the first sentence. It is followed by f , as f starts with ‘Now’, which is the continuation of the first sentence. The first sentence talks about a situation that has been happening for centuries, and the second sentence talks about the situation now. The third sentence is a , as it gives information about the fashion designer, Zubair Kirmani. b comes only after e because e talks about calligraphy and b talks about ‘the calligraphic work’, which is mentioned earlier. e comes after c. So, the correct order of the last three sentences is c, e and b .
