Option 1: ECDBA
Option 2: DEBAC
Option 3: EDABC
Option 4: No rearrangement required
Correct Answer:
ECDBA
Solution : The correct answer is option 1.
Explanation:
- The sentence deals with the topic of Rafael Nadal and the opportunity for him to win most slams. So, E should have the first position and replace A.
- Now we shall see which option suits best in part (B).
- "This will be the first opportunity for Rafael Nadal" is the correct word to be used here. Because we have the word 'first' which is before the word "opportunity". Hence, this is the most suitable and appropriate noun. B will be replaced by C.
- "Rafael Nadal to take sole possession", here possession fits perfectly. C will be replaced by D.
- The next word will be "to take the sole possession of the men's record for most slams." Then D will be replaced by B and E will be replaced by A.
- Thus, making it a meaningful sentence.
