1. Question
English LanguageRead the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Climate Change is the defining issue of our time and we are at a defining moment. From shifting weather patterns that threaten food production to rising sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding, the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in scale. Without drastic action today, adapting to these impacts in the future will be more difficult and costly.Greenhouse gases occur naturally and are __________ (1) to the survival of humans and millions of other living things, by keeping some of the sun’s warmth from reflecting back into space and making Earth livable. But after more than a century and a half of industrialization, deforestation, and large scale agriculture, quantities of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have risen to record levels not seen in three million years. As populations, economies and standards of living grow, so does the cumulative level of greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was set up by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and United Nations Environment to provide an objective source of scientific information. In 2013 the IPCC provided more clarity about the role of human activities in climate change when it released its Fifth Assessment Report. It is categorical in its conclusion: climate change is real and human activities are the main cause.

14. Question
English LanguageRearrangement :
It was difficult for him to admit he was wrong (A)/ He had been so certain that he was correct (B)/ Yet the proof that he had been incorrect stood right before his eyes (C)/ And the deeply held belief could never be shaken (D)/ “See daddy, I told you that they are real!” his daughter excitedly proclaimed (E)
CorrectExplanation;
Concept/Grammar Rules Application The sentences must be realigned in a way that makes a meaningful statement as a result. Option 1, i.e. ABDCE here seems to be the best sequence as it conforms to the entire theme of the passage. Taking part “A” as fixed, Part “B” is succeeding. Part “B” seems to be succeeded by part “D” which is shown with the help of conjunction. Part “D” seems to portray conjunction with the second statement as this makes the sentence sound contextually correct. Further, among the remaining parts, part “C” seems to precede “E” as part “E” seems to end the statement while showing conjunction with part “C” as the girl proved her point to her father.
So, we got a sequence i.e. ABDCE and the correct formation of the statement will be ‘It was difficult for him to admit he was wrong. He had been so certain that he was correct and the deeply held belief could never be shaken. Yet the proof that he had been incorrect stood right before his eyes. “See daddy, I told you that they are real!” his daughter excitedly proclaimed.”

Concept/Grammar Rules Application The sentences must be realigned in a way that makes a meaningful statement as a result. Option 1, i.e. ABDCE here seems to be the best sequence as it conforms to the entire theme of the passage. Taking part “A” as fixed, Part “B” is succeeding. Part “B” seems to be succeeded by part “D” which is shown with the help of conjunction. Part “D” seems to portray conjunction with the second statement as this makes the sentence sound contextually correct. Further, among the remaining parts, part “C” seems to precede “E” as part “E” seems to end the statement while showing conjunction with part “C” as the girl proved her point to her father.
So, we got a sequence i.e. ABDCE and the correct formation of the statement will be ‘It was difficult for him to admit he was wrong. He had been so certain that he was correct and the deeply held belief could never be shaken. Yet the proof that he had been incorrect stood right before his eyes. “See daddy, I told you that they are real!” his daughter excitedly proclaimed.”
