1 answers
The correct answer is 2.
?The second sentence should be E as it reiterates the same fact as sentence A. The sentence that should succeed E is B. We can confirm the fact from the usage of the word Gurukulam in the third sentence. The word Gurukulam first appears in the second sentence E and the third sentence, B traces back the history of Gurukulam.
The sentence that should succeed the third sentence (B), is F. We can confirm it because, in sentence F, the fact regarding the initiation of Gurukulam (Vedic Age) reappears, after appearing for the first time in sentence B, the sentence which precedes F. Therefore, we can conclude that F should be the fourth sentence.
The sentence which should succeed the fourth sentence (F), is D because we have already seen that F talks about the chief purpose of Gurukulam i.e training the young minds. And D should succeed F because D further explains in detail, the various domains in which the students were usually trained in.
The sentence that should succeed D is G. The phrase 'during the training' at the beginning of the sentence G makes a strong indication here that it should be the sixth sentence. The fifth sentence ends with referring to the training and the next sentence opens with the reference. Therefore, G should come after the fifth sentence i.e D.
The remaining sentence i.e C, therefore, should be the seventh sentence. Also, it should be the seventh sentence because it explains how the teachers and students maintained a respectful relationship among them (the previous sentence only states the fact that there was a respectful relationship among them) and how there was no discrimination based on social standards.
