c. to appear before
d. patiently for her turn

• A. a-b-c-d
• B. b-d-c-a
• C. b-d-a-c
• D. a-b-d-c

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

b-d-c-a

b is first in the sequence: b starts talking about a girl. Since it is the only phrase that introduces a topic, it is first. It says that the girl waited.

b is followed by d: d tells us what the girl waited for. It says that the girl waited patiently for her turn.

d is followed by c: c further continues d's point and says that she waited patiently for her turn to appear before someone.

c is followed by a: a tells us who this someone is. It says that she waited to appear before the interview panel.

Finally, the correct sentence is 'The girl waited patiently for her turn to appear before the interview panel'.

Thus, the correct sequence is b d c a. Hence, B is the correct option.
