Option 1: Whip
Option 2: Wing
Option 3: Wink
Option 4: Weather
Correct Answer: Wing
Solution : Given: 1. Wink 2. Whip 3. Weary 4. Wing 5. Weigh 6. Weather
Step 1: Compare the first letter of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter W , then move on to the next letter. Step 2: The second letter of each word is either e, h , or i . Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – W e ary, W e igh, W e ather, W h ip, W i nk, W i ng. Step 3: Compare the third letter of (We a ry, We i gh, We a ther) and the fourth letter of (Win k , Win g ). We a r and We a ther will come before We i gh in the sequence as a comes before i in the alphabetical system. Similarly, Win g will come before Win k as g comes before k . Step 4: Compare the fourth letter of (Wea r , Wea t her). Wea r will come before Wea t her in the sequence as r comes before t in the alphabetical system. So, the sequence is Wear, Weather, Weigh, Whip, Wing, Wink.
Therefore, Whip will come fifth if they are arranged as per their order in an English dictionary. Hence, the second option is correct.
