In each of the following questions, two columns are given containing three sentence fragments each. In the first column, the fragments are labelled A, B, and
C. In the second column, the fragments are labelled D, E, and F. You are required to match the fragments from Column I with the fragments from Column II to form grammatically correct and contextually meaningful sentences. Choose the option that provides the correct combination(s).

• A-E: Forms a coherent sentence contrasting the central bank's efforts (injecting liquidity) with the ongoing reality (systemic risk remaining). • B-F : Logically connects the singular subject (imposition of tariffs) with its direct past-tense consequence (forced manufacturers to rethink supply chains). • Why C-D fails: The phrase "severely contracting the economy and exacerbated unemployment" lacks grammatical parallelism. "Contracting" (present participle) cannot be paired with "exacerbated" (past tense) connected by "and." It should be "contracted... and exacerbated."
