INTRODUCTION TO PARAJUMBLES

Parajumbles are jumbled paragraphs. Basically, you are given a paragraph - but the sentences are not in the right order. It's up to you to untie this knot and rearrange the sentences so that they logically make sense. Normally

instructions for this type of questions will read "Choose the most logical order of sentences from among the given

choices".

FORM A LINK

Suppose you establish the link 'BA'. The given options are:(a) DABC      (b) ACDB      (c) CBAD      (d) DBAC.Now you are left with option (c) and (d) to examine. You read the sentences in the order given by these two options and use your methods again to determine which one is correct.Is establishing links between two sentences easy?Not ALWAYS!!! However, easy or not, you can certainly establish links between two or more sentences with the help of some friends found in the sentences

CONJUNCTIONS LINK

CONJUNCTIONS PLAY AND IMPORTANT ROLE IN JOINING TWO OR THREE SENTENCES. BEWARE OF ALL THE SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS

LIKE also, although, as far as, as if, as soon as, because, in order that, since, so, so that, unless,

until, when, whenever etc

COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS

CORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS ARE ALSO VERY IMPORTANT. COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS

ARE for, and, nor, but, or, yet and so.

ADVERBS

KEEP AN EYE ON ADVERBS LIKE even, also, still, however, nevertheless etc. SUCH ADVERBS HELP

IN LINKING UP TWO OR MORE SENTENCES.

PRONOUNS

USE THE PRONOUN TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. IN LONG PARAGRAPHS THE PRONOUN REFRENCE MAY NOT

ALWAYS WORK. IDEALLY A PRONOUN IN ONE SENTENCE SHOULD ALWAYS POINT TO THE NOUN IN

THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEEDING NEXT SENTENCE.
