Question
Match the statements from column 1 with column 2 and
find which of the following pair of statements given in the options make contextually and grammatically correct sense.Solution
The correctly matched pairs are AE, BF, and CD. AE: A talks about Sahara Desert growing (expanding) due to 'climate change'. E must follow A because it mentions the direction of expansion (southward) and also talks about the trend (of expansion) continuing in the coming decades. BF: B talks about the relationship between cat and humans and its evolution and F carries it forward and concludes it. CD: C talks about recent research on the behaviour of cats (the fact that they might be cold or aloof as we generally think). Rather they might bond with their owners (mentioned in D). Among the given options, BF is mentioned in option e). Hence, e) is the correct answer.
