Question
Which should be the second sentence after rearrangement?
Rearrange the following sentences which are jumbled, to form a meaningful paragraph and answer the questions that follow it. A. People with an illness anxiety disorder (IAD) experience persistent anxiety or fear of developing or having a serious medical illness that adversely affects their daily life. B. This fear persists despite normal physical examination and laboratory testing results. C. People suffering from IAD pay excessive attention to normal bodily sensations (such as functions of digestion or sweating) and misinterpret these sensations as indicators of severe disease. D. It is defined by excessive worry about having or developing a serious undiagnosed medical condition. E. Illness anxiety disorder (previously called hypochondriasis, a term which has been revised in the DSM-5 due to its disparaging connotation) is a psychiatric disorder.Solution
The correct sequence is: EDABC A acts as an introductory sentence where on reading it we get the idea of the subject that is Illness anxiety disorder. B gives further details about the same. It defines the disorder in brief. C mentions what all an individual suffers from IAD and what he experiences. Since C mentions about an irrational fear, D talks about the same fear and its severity. E then further expands details about the irrational fear that it is so severe that the individual becomes conscious of his normal bodily sensations and mistake them as symptoms of severe disease.
