Question
Which of the following is the third sentence of the
passage? Five 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) Attending online classes cannot be avoided currently, so doctors suggest that children use laptops or desktops instead of mobile phones as the distance between eyes and bigger screens is more. (b) This means they are spending more time staring into mobile phones. (c) It has been almost a year and a half that children have been at home, and the idea of education or entertainment is centred around digital screens. (d) Exposure to sunlight for one to two hours a day including outdoor games, along with a healthy and well-balanced diet, is also recommended. (e) The specialist doctors say more cases of ‘squint-eye’ is also being observed in children. (f) Citing this unprecedented situation, ophthalmologists say they are seeing an increase in cases of Myopia among children under 15 years since the COVID-19 pandemic broke out.Solution
The correct order of sentences is c, b, f, e, a and d Here, a cannot be the first sentence, since the problem needs to be discussed first. a is a solution to the problem. So, the first sentence of the passage is c . b follows c. f also follows c , but it is perfect to use f after b. After f is e , as it also mentions another problem faced by children. a follows e because, in d, the word ‘also’ is mentioned, which states that a solution has already been said and in addition to that, this also is recommended. So, after a, d follows.
