Rearranging Sentences for Meaningful Paragraph Construction
This question requires us to arrange five given sentences (A, B, C, D, E) into a logical sequence to form a coherent paragraph. We then need to identify the sentence that comes second in this rearranged order.
Sentence Roles in Paragraph Formation
Let's analyze the role each sentence might play:
- Sentence E: "The earth which we call mother has given us many gifts, one of them is trees." This sentence introduces the topic of trees as gifts from nature, making it a strong candidate for the beginning of the paragraph.
- Sentence C: "Trees release oxygen which needs for our life." This sentence highlights a vital benefit of trees for human survival. It logically follows an introduction about trees.
- Sentence D: "They only know to give not to take." This statement describes the selfless nature of trees, potentially elaborating on the benefits mentioned previously. It connects well with Sentence C.
- Sentence B: "Many of the wild lives live in forests and they get their all need from trees." This sentence discusses the importance of trees for wildlife, providing another perspective on their usefulness.
- Sentence A: "So trees are a beautiful and useful gift of nature." The word "So" suggests this is a concluding or summarizing sentence, drawing together the points made earlier.
Step-by-Step Paragraph Construction
To create a meaningful paragraph, we need to establish a logical flow of ideas:
- Step 1: Introduction
Sentence E is the most suitable starting point as it introduces trees as gifts from the Earth.
Current Order: E
- Step 2: Elaborating on Benefits
Following the introduction, Sentence C explains a crucial benefit: oxygen release for life. This logically expands on why trees are important gifts.
Current Order: E, C
- Step 3: Describing Characteristics
Sentence D, "They only know to give not to take," complements Sentence C by describing the giving nature of trees, reinforcing their importance.
Current Order: E, C, D
- Step 4: Adding Further Support
Sentence B provides another essential aspect of trees' contribution – supporting wildlife. This adds to the overall picture of trees as useful gifts.
Current Order: E, C, D, B
- Step 5: Conclusion
Sentence A acts as a conclusion, summarizing the points made about trees being beautiful and useful gifts, starting with "So".
Final Order: E, C, D, B, A
Second Sentence Identification
After rearranging the sentences into the logical order E, C, D, B, A, the second sentence in the paragraph is Sentence C.
Final Answer: The second sentence is C.
