Explanatory Answer

Method of solving this CAT Question from Sentence Rearrangement:

This is a tricky sentence rearrangement question.

Sentence B suggests that a “fund-starved� country like India should not worry about foreign institutional investment which will come and go based on the external environment.

Sentence D talks of finding ways to protect the Indian economy from “external vicissitudes�.

Sentence B offers a possible solution to the problem of foreign investment ebb and flow based on the environment outside. So B follows D, possibly immediately after.

Sentence D talks of a “new normal� kind of environment. Let us look at the other sentences to see what this could be referring to.

Sentence A talks of continued monetary easing by some nations and shrinking global trade.

Sentence C talks of how it is up to the political bosses to kick start the economy, as “everyone� is waiting for the other to act first.

Either of the two sentences above could be the “new normal� environment.

If we take the “new normal� environment to refer to the continued monetary easing and shrinking global trade, we have the sentence order ADB. The only answer option with this sequence is a) ADBC. This makes a cogent paragraph.

If we take the “new normal� environment to refer to “everyone waiting for the other to act first�, we have the sentence order CDB. The answer option with this sequence is b) CDBA. This however, does not make a cogent paragraph, as there is no logic in sentence A following sentence B. In fact, considering just sentences A and B, it is clear B follows A. Sentence A sets a context. Sentence B suggests what should be done in this context.

The question is " Arrange the sentences in the correct order "
The order is ADBC

Hence, the answer is ADBC

Choice A is the correct answer.
