Key Points

• S1: Trade and transport have been very significant in the progress of human life.
  • This sentence introduces the importance of trade and transport.
• P: For a long time trade and transport moved within the restricted boundaries of space and time.
  • This sentence provides a historical context, detailing a past limitation of trade and transport, which logically follows a general statement about their significance.
• R: However, with the developments in the field of science and technology, trade and transport have spread all over the world.
  • The word "However" indicates a contrast to the "restricted boundaries" mentioned in P, introducing the modern reality of widespread trade and transport due to technological advancements. This is a strong transitional link.
• S: The world has, as a consequence, become one big village and distances have become immaterial or, to be more precise, distances seem to have shrunk.
  • The phrase "as a consequence" directly links to the widespread nature of trade and transport described in R, explaining the effect of shrinking distances and a globalized world.
• Q: This has been made possible by the development of a fast and efficient transport and communication system.
  • The pronoun "This" refers to the phenomenon of the world becoming a "big village" and distances shrinking, as described in S. Q then explains the underlying cause: the development of advanced transport and communication systems. The mention of "communication" here is crucial for linking to S6.
• S6: Thus, trade transport and communication complement each other.
  • This concluding sentence synthesizes the elements discussed (trade, transport in S1, P, R, S; and communication introduced in Q), stating their complementary nature, which is a logical summary.
• The sequence P-R-S-Q creates a coherent flow: historical context (P), modern spread (R), consequences of spread (S), and the underlying technological enablers (Q), leading to the final summary (S6).

  • This sentence introduces the policy and the desired forest cover percentage.
• Q: This was felt to be necessary for maintaining the ecological balance.
  • The pronoun "This" refers to the 33 percent desired forest area mentioned in S1, and Q explains the reason for this policy target. This creates a strong cause-and-effect link.
• P: However the present forest cover is only 23 per cent, much lower than the desired percentage.
  • The word "However" indicates a contrast with the ideal scenario (33%) presented in S1 and Q, introducing the current, lower reality (23%). This logically follows the discussion of the ideal.
• S: This creates difficulties for millions of people who live in the fringe areas of forests and depend upon the forests for their livelihood.
  • The demonstrative "This" in S refers to the low forest cover (23%) mentioned in P, detailing a direct socio-economic consequence of this disparity. This forms a strong problem-consequence link.

• S6: Some land is termed as land put to other non-agricultural uses; this includes settlements, roads, railways, industries, etc.
  • This concluding sentence introduces another category of land use ("non-agricultural uses"), parallel to "wasteland" in R, continuing the broader discussion of land utilization.
• The sequence Q-P-S-R provides a coherent flow: stating the policy goal (S1), explaining its rationale (Q), presenting the current shortfall (P), detailing the human impact of the shortfall (S), and then diversifying into other land classifications (R, followed by S6).

Important Points

• Practice is key! Regularly practicing rearranging sentences or paragraphs will improve your ability to discern logical sequences and enhance your overall comprehension skills.
• When facing questions that require rearranging sentences or paragraphs to form a coherent sequence, consider the following steps:
  • Read Carefully: Go through each sentence attentively to understand its context, topic, and the information it provides. Note any connecting phrases or words that link sentences together.
  • Identify the Logical Flow: Look for clues within the sentences that indicate a sequence. Sentences might introduce a topic, provide details, give examples, or conclude the idea. Pay attention to time markers, cause-and-effect relationships, or other transitional phrases.
  • Start with Key Points: Sometimes, certain sentences act as introductory or concluding statements. Begin with sentences that introduce the topic or provide a conclusion, as they often set the context or summarize the content.
  • Connect Related Ideas: Identify relationships between sentences. For example, a sentence might explain or support the idea presented in the previous sentence. Look for coherence and progression in the ideas presented.
  • Consider Keyword Consistency: Check for keywords or recurring themes that link sentences. These can help establish a logical sequence. Pay attention to pronouns (he, it, they) referring to previously mentioned subjects.
  • Evaluate Options: Once you have a tentative sequence, review it to ensure that the ideas flow logically and coherently. Eliminate options that disrupt the logical flow or create inconsistencies.
  • Test the Flow: Mentally or visually run through the proposed sequence to verify if it reads smoothly and makes sense. Ensure that there's a clear progression from the beginning to the end.
  • Double-Check: Before finalizing your answer, double-check the sequence to confirm that it presents a cohesive and logical progression of ideas.
