Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the right order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
A. But in snapping at the supposed treasure, he dropped the bit he was carrying, and so lost all.
B. When he was crossing a river on his way home, he saw his own shadow reflected in the stream below.
C. Thinking that it was another dog with another piece of meat, he resolved to make himself master of that also.
D. A dog had stolen a piece of meat out of a butcher's shop.
Solution: ‘D’ is the first sentence of the passage. It introduces the subject. ‘B’ is the second sentence. It says what he did with the stolen meat next. The third sentence is ‘C’. It says what the dog thought when he saw the reflection. The action of the thought comes next. So, ‘A’ is the last statement.
