Correct Answer: Reef
Solution : Given: Reef, Ready, Rainbow, Rain
Step 1: Compare the first letter of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter R, then move on to the next letter. Step 2: The second letter of the words is either a or e. Based on the alphabetical series the order is – Rainbow, Rain, Reef, Ready. Step 3: The third and fourth letters of (Rain, Rainbow) are the same. Also, Rain has no more letters. So, Rain (4-letter word) will come before Rainbow (7-letter word). Step 4: Compare the third letter of (Reef Ready). Ready will come before Reef in the sequence as a comes before e in the alphabetical system. Therefore, the sequence is Rain, Rainbow, Ready, Reef.
So, Reef is the word that will come in fourth position. Hence, the first option is correct.
