      Question

      In the following questions, the sentence/passage is

      split into four parts and named A, B, C, and D. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. If the sentence is correct in the given order as it is, then select option “No rearrangement required” as your answer choice.  (A) often results in policies that are symbolically appealing (B) the tendency to conflate intent with impact (C) but functionally ineffective (D) in addressing systemic challenges
      A CBAD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B BDAC Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C BADC Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D BACD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E No rearrangement required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The construction requires a nominal subject to initiate the sentence, which is fulfilled by “the tendency to conflate intent with impact.”  This is appropriately followed by the main verb phrase “often results in policies that are symbolically appealing.” The adversative conjunction “but” introduces a contrast through “functionally ineffective,” and the prepositional phrase “in addressing systemic challenges” completes the idea by specifying the domain of ineffectiveness. Accordingly, the coherent and grammatically correct sequence is B–A–C–D, making option (d) the correct answer.
