Question

Rearrange the parts in correct order to make a meaningful sentence.
(A) he sped away
(B) without leaving a trace
(C) when I asked the stranger
(D) who he was

The correct answer is

 (C), (D), (A), (B)

To solve the given sentence rearrangement problem, we need to examine each part of the sentence and determine the correct logical sequence to form a coherent and meaningful sentence.

  1. Identifying the Subject: The sentence begins by identifying the action performed by the speaker or subject. The part (C) "when I asked the stranger" introduces the situation where the speaker is interacting with an unidentified person.
  2. Finding the Next Logical Piece: After introducing the situation where the speaker "asked the stranger," the logical follow-up is the content of the question. This is provided by (D) "who he was," completing the speaker's inquiry.
  3. Progressing the Action: Once the question is asked, the next logical sequence involves the response or the resulting action, which is (A) "he sped away." This action follows naturally as a reaction to the question asked by the speaker.
  4. Concluding the Sentence: Finally, (B) "without leaving a trace" complements the action of the stranger speeding away, indicating that the stranger left no evidence or indication of his presence.

Based on this analysis, the sequence of parts that forms a meaningful and coherent sentence is: (C) "when I asked the stranger," (D) "who he was," (A) "he sped away," (B) "without leaving a trace."

Therefore, the correct answer is: (C), (D), (A), (B).
