Directions (1-5): Rearrange the following six sentences (A), (B), (C), (D), (E) and (F) in the proper sequence to form a meaningful paragraph and then answer the questions given below.

(A) In Diener’s words, it’s more like “a moving baseline” than one set point over a lifetime.

(B) Happy people have strong social relationships. In one study conducted by Diener, the happiest 10 percent of the participants all had strong supportive relationships.

(C) A strong social network didn’t guarantee happiness, but it was a requirement to be in the happiest group.

(D) Diener discussed the set point theory of temperament, which states that people have ups and downs in reaction to life events, but that they adapt and return to a set point.

(E) Temperament, which appears to have a genetic component according to several recent studies, also affects mood.

(F) There is evidence for this, but studies have shown that people who have experienced a major loss, like being fired or losing a spouse, often don’t fully adapt or take years to do so.

  1. What should be the FOURTH sentence after rearrangement?

(a) F

(b) A

(c) B

(d) C

(e) D

Answer & Explanation
Ans. e

Exp. After carefully reading the sentences, we can say that sentence (B) is the first sentence of the paragraph as it introduces its theme which is about happiness. It has further mentioned a study conducted by Diener which mentioned the connection of happiness with their social relationships. This has been further explained in sentence (C). Next should be sentence (E) as it illustrates another factor (apart from social relationships) that affects the mood. This can be understood by taking a hint from “also” mentioned in sentence (E). Sentence (D) explains Diener’s theory on temperament. Thus, sentence (D) should consecutively follow sentence (E). Sentence (F) should come next, as it provides the evidence supporting the theory of Diener about temperament. Sentence (A) should be the last sentence in the rearrangement. Thus, the final sequence formed is BCEDFA.
