Option 2: ADCB

Option 3: DBCA

Option 4: DCAB

Team Careers360 3rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: DBCA


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation: The logical flow of information in the order DBCA starts with the historical context of English in India, mentioning the East India Company's establishment of settlements in Chennai, Kolkata, and Mumbai in the early 1600s. This sets the foundation for the longer exposure India has had to English compared to other countries using it as a second language. The paragraph then delves into this extended exposure, highlighting how English has gradually influenced various aspects of Indian culture, including words, idioms, grammar, and rhetoric. It concludes by emphasising the linguistic diversity within India, 

Therefore, the correct answer is DBCA.

how to learn speaking english as well as vocabulary ?

Subhrajit Mukherjee 25th May, 2021

To learn this particular skill you have to coordinate your reading and analyzing skills. If you read something you analyze what are words you don't know. After this learn those word properly. Keep a notebook to copy those word. Now try to apply those words in appropriate places. This will increase your Vocabulary.

Notable media to acquire vocabulary is to read English Novel (Non-Chetan Bhagat Types) or newspapers like Hindu.

Now for Speaking you have to practice it. At first you have to clear the hesitation of speaking in English. Try to communicate in English as much as you can. This will resolve your problem of feeling underconfident while speaking english. You can use the Feynman Technique. Suppose you learn anything. You can teach yourself the same thing in English as if you are teaching. This will help you to analyze the topic as well as will make your speaking skills better.

After you solve this problem then try to see English movies as much as possible. Use headphones while watching. This will make your understanding of English accent better and you can implicate a bit of accent to your english speaking in order to spice it up.

I hope my answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!
