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.

  1. A. 1-4-3-2
  2. B. 3-1-2-4
  3. C. 4-3-1-2
  4. 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.
