Question
Rearrange the following sentences in correct order to make a logical passage:
1. The team analyzed the survey data.
2. Insights were used to improve the customer experience.
3. A targeted marketing campaign was created.
4. The data was collected through various channels.
- A. 1-4-3-2
- B. 3-1-2-4
- C. 4-3-1-2
- D. 4-1-3-2 (Correct answer)
Correct Answer
Option D — 4-1-3-2
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer is 4-1-3-2.
Key Points
- Follow the natural sequence of a data project, which is chronological:
- 4 — the data was collected through various channels (nothing can precede collection)
- 1 — the team analyzed the survey data
- 3 — a targeted marketing campaign was created from that analysis
- 2 — the insights were used to improve the customer experience
- Sentence 4 must open, since analysis presupposes collected data, and sentence 2 must close, as it describes the outcome.
- In process-based jumbles, fix the first and last sentences before ordering the middle — that alone eliminates most options here, since only option D begins with 4 and ends with 2.
Additional Information
- Para-jumble strategy: identify the opening sentence (it introduces without back-reference) and the closing one (it concludes or states an outcome), then order the middle.
- Linking clues are the reliable evidence — pronouns (*it, they, these*), determiners (*this, such*), connectives (*however, therefore, moreover*) and chronological markers.
- A sentence containing a pronoun or *these* can almost never open a paragraph, because it depends on something already named.
