Question

Rearrange the following sentences in correct order to make a logical passage.

1. This leads to a decline in their overall well-being.

2. Many people today suffer from excessive stress.

3. Consequently, coping mechanisms become essential for a balanced life.

4. It often manifests as physical and mental exhaustion.

The correct answer is

2-4-1-3

Sentence 2 introduces the topic, excessive stress, and does not depend on any earlier sentence, so it opens the passage.

Sentence 4 follows: "It" refers to the stress mentioned in sentence 2, and describes how it shows itself (physical and mental exhaustion).

Sentence 1 comes next: "This" refers to the exhaustion, which leads to a decline in their well-being; "their" points back to "many people".

Sentence 3, beginning with "Consequently", gives the conclusion that coping mechanisms become essential.

Hence, the logical order is 2-4-1-3.
