Question

For the following question, arrange the sentences A, B, C, and D between sentences 1 and 6 to form a logical sequence with sentence 1 and sentence 6 as the starting sentence and the concluding sentence respectively:

(1) Say you're an employer who's forced to pay the government the equivalent of 48% of every salary on your payroll.
(A) That's the big question facing many French entrepreneurs these days.
(B) Fifty kilometers away, those charges are just 10.2%.
(C) Taxed to the teeth in France, they're grazing across the channel and seeing fiscal paradise beyond the white cliffs of Dover.
(D) Do you move?
(6) And increasingly, they're saying 'why not?'

• A. DCBA
• B. BDAC
• C. BADC
• D. CABD

Answer 1

The correct option is B BDAC

The first statement in the sequence should be the one that best connects with (1). It should be a continuation or extension of (1).

B is first in the sequence: (1) talks about a region where the government levies heavy charges on entrepreneurs. B continues this point by adding that fifty kilometers away the charges are considerably less.

B is followed by D: D asks a question in wake of the point made by B. It asks that will one move to the said area that is fifty kilometers away.

D is followed by A: A tells us that the question asked in D is the one facing many French entrepreneurs.

A is followed by C: C explains about the topic discussed in D and A. It says that due to high taxes in France, many entrepreneurs are moving beyond Dover. It also connects perfectly with (6).

Thus, the correct sequence is B D A C. Hence, B is the correct option.
