The correct answer is
DABC

Understanding Sentence Arrangement

The question asks us to arrange the given sentence parts to form a meaningful and grammatically correct sentence. The parts are:

  • (A) met
  • (B) his friend
  • (C) at the station
  • (D) Rohit

Analyzing Sentence Components

To arrange these parts, let's identify their roles in a typical English sentence:

  • (D) Rohit: This is the subject of the sentence – the person performing the action.
  • (A) met: This is the verb – the action being performed.
  • (B) his friend: This is the direct object of the verb – the person who Rohit met.
  • (C) at the station: This is a prepositional phrase, acting as an adverbial phrase, indicating where the action took place.

Constructing the Correct Sentence Order

The standard English sentence structure is Subject-Verb-Object (SVO), followed by other elements like adverbials.

  1. Start with the subject: (D) Rohit
  2. Add the verb: (A) met
  3. Add the object: (B) his friend
  4. Add the prepositional phrase (where): (C) at the station

Putting these together in the order D-A-B-C gives us the sentence: "Rohit met his friend at the station."

Evaluating the Options

Let's check the given options against the correct order (DABC):

  • 1. DCBA - Incorrect
  • 2. DBAC - Incorrect
  • 3. DACB - Incorrect
  • 4. DABC - Correct

Therefore, the correct arrangement of the sentence parts is DABC.
