Correct Answer: CABD


Solution : The correct choice is the second option: CABD.

Explanation : This paragraph starts with the given information that "the Ramayana is one of the largest ancient" followed by part (C) , "epics in world literature" as it completes the given sentence. The sentence (A) states, that the epic consists of 24000 verses that are divided into seven parts, followed by part (B), which gives additional information about those parts to which the first and seventh are later added. The sentence (D) comes last as it completes the paragraph by mentioning that it belongs to history, which is a narrative of past events that is full of teachings on the goals of human life.

Therefore, the complete paragraph would be: The Ramayana is one of the largest ancient epics in world literature. It consists of nearly 24,000 verses divided into seven Khanda (parts), the first and the seventh being later additions. It belongs to the genre of Itihasa, narratives of past events interspersed with teachings on the goals of human life.
