Question
Which of these should be the FIRST sentence after
rearrangement? Directions: In the question given below, a set of sentences is given, which when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Arrange the sentences in the correct sequence and answer the questions that follow. A. This is because there are few specialized nerves or pain receptors in the lungs. B. Lung cancer often has no symptoms until it has spread. C. Further testing can identify the type and stage of cancer, which helps in determining treatment options. D. When symptoms do occur, they vary depending on the type of lung cancer and the location and size of the tumour. E. A series of tests are necessary to diagnose lung cancer.Solution
After reading all five sentences thoroughly, we can say that B is the first sentence as it introduces the topic of the passage. A, B and D form a group. B talks about how lung cancer has no symptoms during the initial stages of it. Sentence A further gives the reason why such is the case with lung cancer. D further adds that how in later stages, the symptoms do occur. C and E form a pair as E states that cancer can be diagnosed after running some tests and C describes that, on further testing, the type of cancer can also be identified. Rearranging sentences in the order of BADEC will make a coherent paragraph. So, the first sentence after rearrangement should be B.
