ABCD

Arranging Sentence Parts Correctly

This question tests the basic structure of an English sentence. We need to arrange the given parts to form a meaningful and grammatically correct sentence.

The parts are:

  • (A) my mother - This acts as the subject of the sentence (who performed the action).
  • (B) bought - This is the main verb (the action).
  • (C) a beautiful saree - This is the direct object (what was bought).
  • (D) yesterday - This is an adverb of time (when the action happened).

The standard order for a simple declarative sentence in English is:

Subject + Verb + Object + Adverbial

Let's arrange the parts according to this structure:

  • Subject: (A) my mother
  • Verb: (B) bought
  • Object: (C) a beautiful saree
  • Adverbial: (D) yesterday

Combining these in order gives us: A + B + C + D.

The resulting sentence is: "My mother bought a beautiful saree yesterday."

This sequence matches Option 4.
