Question and options
In this question, six words are given which are denoted by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. By using all the six words, each only once, you have to frame a meaningful and grammatically correct sentence. The correct order of the words is your answer, to be chosen by you from the given options.
1. it; 2. wanted; 3. not; 4. you; 5. is; 6. what
1. it; 2. wanted; 3. not; 4. you; 5. is; 6. what
- 5, 1, 3, 6, 4, 2
- 6, 4, 2, 5, 1, 3
- 6, 5, 2, 1, 3, 4
- 6, 5, 3, 4, 1, 2
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A - 5, 1, 3, 6, 4, 2
The order 5, 1, 3, 6, 4, 2 gives "Is it not what you wanted?", a grammatical question. The order 6, 4, 2, 5, 1, 3 gives "What you wanted is it not", which has no proper question form, and the other two orders do not make sense.
