Question

Arrange sentences A, B, C, and D between sentences 1 and 6 to form a logical sequence of six sentences.
1. It is the success story of the Indian expatriate in the US which today hogs much of the media coverage in India.
A. East and West, the twain have met quite comfortably in their person, thank you.
B. Especially in its more recent romancing — the-NRI phase.
C. Seldom does the price of getting there — more like not getting there — or what's going on behind those sunny smiles get so much media hype.
D. Well groomed, with their perfect Colgate smiles, and hair in place, they appear the picture of confidence which comes from having arrived.
6. The festival of feature films and documentaries made by Americans of Indian descent being screened this fortnight, goes a long way in filling those gaps.

• A. ACBD
• B. DABC
• C. BDAC
• D. ABCD

Hint:

When arranging sentences, start with the central theme, then provide details, and conclude with the impact or outcome.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The logical sequence starts with the main statement "It is the success story of the Indian expatriate in the US," followed by sentence (B), which introduces the "NRI phase" and the recent focus on this group. Sentence (D) then describes the image of the Indian expatriate, emphasizing how they are perceived — well-groomed and confident. Sentence (A) adds to this perception by noting the comfort between East and West, reinforcing the success of the Indian expatriate in the US. Finally, sentence (C) comments on the media hype surrounding the success of these individuals and the price of getting there. Thus, the correct sequence is BDAC.
