    Question

    Direction: In each of the questions given below, a

    sentence is given which is divided into four parts A, B, C and D. These four parts may or may not be in their correct position. The sentence is then followed by options with the correct combination of parts that should replace each other in order to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. Find the correct combination of parts that replace each other. If the sentence is correct as it is, select ‘5’ as your option. The world’s stockpile of (A) is just as intense as that for riskier assets (B) a fresh record in a sign that demand for havens (C) negative-yielding debt has swelled to (D).
    A A-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B A-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C C-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D B-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E The sentence is correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The first part (A) is ending with a preposition (of) and the second part (B) is starting with a verb ‘is’ which is grammatically incorrect, and therefore part (B) needs to be changed. The best alternative is swapping it with part D which makes the sentence meaningful.
