Question

Choose the correct option to arrange the words in the jumbled sentence to make it meaningful.

\[ \text{The young man / by the committee / was selected / for scoring 100 runs.} \]
\[ \text{A \_ \_ \_ \_ B \_ \_ \_ \_ C \_ \_ \_ \_ D} \]

• A. ADBC
• B. ABDC
• C. ACBD
• D. BCDA

Hint:

In passive sentences, first place the subject, then the passive verb, then the agent phrase.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
This sentence is in passive voice. The proper order is: \[ \text{Subject}+\text{was selected}+\text{by agent}+\text{reason} \]

Step 1: Identify the subject. The subject is: \[ \text{The young man} \] So part \(A\) should come first.

Step 2: Identify the main verb. The verb phrase is: \[ \text{was selected} \] So part \(C\) should come second.

Step 3: Add agent and reason. The agent is: \[ \text{by the committee} \] The reason is: \[ \text{for scoring 100 runs} \] So the order becomes: \[ A+C+B+D \]

Step 4: Complete sentence. \[ \text{The young man was selected by the committee for scoring 100 runs.} \]

Step 5: Final answer. \[ \boxed{\text{ACBD}} \]
