Answer 1

Correct Answer: 657319842

Step 1: List the given words with their indices → 1: AT, 2: EVENING, 3: AGAIN, 4: LAST, 5: MET, 6: WE, 7: HER, 8: HOSPITAL, 9: THE.
Step 2: Identify the required constraints → The sentence must be affirmative (simple statement) and the part of the day should come last. Here, the part of the day is EVENING (index 2), so it should be the final word.
Step 3: Choose a natural affirmative sentence skeleton → A clear structure is Subject–Verb–Object + Adverbials of frequency/manner + Place + Time. Subject = WE(6), Verb = MET(5), Object = HER(7).
Step 4: Place the frequency/adverb of repetition → “AGAIN” (3) typically comes after the object or before the verb. Using post-object placement yields smooth flow: WE(6) MET(5) HER(7) AGAIN(3).
Step 5: Add the place phrase with a preposition → Use “AT” (1) + “THE” (9) + “HOSPITAL” (8): … AGAIN(3) AT(1) THE(9) HOSPITAL(8). This forms a correct prepositional phrase for place.
Step 6: Position the time expression with the part of the day last → The time phrase is “LAST(4) EVENING(2),” where “EVENING” is the part of the day and must be the final word. Placing it at the very end satisfies the constraint.
Step 7: Verify the complete affirmative sentence → “We met her again at the hospital last evening.” This is grammatically correct, affirmative, and ends with the part of the day “evening.”
Step 8: Convert to the index sequence without spaces → WE(6) MET(5) HER(7) AGAIN(3) AT(1) THE(9) HOSPITAL(8) LAST(4) EVENING(2).
