Sentence Rearrangement Exercise

The task is to arrange the given sentence fragments (A), (B), (C), and (D) into a grammatically correct and meaningful sentence.

Step-by-Step Sentence Assembly

We need to find the logical order for the fragments:

  1. Identify the Subject/Introduction: Fragment (D) "scientists analyzing the skull of" provides a clear starting point, introducing the actors and their action.
  2. Connect the Object of Analysis: Fragment (A) "the largest known rodent have determined that" logically follows (D), specifying what the scientists were analyzing and indicating a finding. This forms: "Scientists analyzing the skull of the largest known rodent have determined that".
  3. State the Determined Fact: The remaining fragments (C) "the prehistoric herbivore's front" and (B) "bite was as strong as a tiger's" describe the scientists' determination. Fragment (C) introduces the subject of the finding (the herbivore's front part), and (B) completes the description of its bite strength.
  4. Combine to form the complete sentence: Putting these together yields: "Scientists analyzing the skull of the largest known rodent have determined that the prehistoric herbivore's front bite was as strong as a tiger's."

The correct sequence of the fragments is therefore (D), (A), (C), (B).

Final Answer Sequence

The correct order that forms a meaningful sentence is:

  • (D) scientists analyzing the skull of
  • (A) the largest known rodent have determined that
  • (C) the prehistoric herbivore's front
  • (B) bite was as strong as a tiger's

This corresponds to the sequence (D), (A), (C), (B).
