Arrange the sentences in order to form a coherent paragraph and answer the questions that follow. A. Travelling frequently between the Russian, Ottoman and Qajar Iranian empires, he was one of a class of roving Armenian revolutionaries who collaborated in or took leading roles in the Russian, Iranian and Young Turk revolutions. B. The Russian revolution of 1905 profoundly undermined the authority of the tsar and helped to generate greater class consciousness, which manifested in the 1917 Bolshevik revolution. C. Rostom was the nom de guerre of Stepan Zorian (1867-1919) and, like many early 20th-century Armenian revolutionaries, he led a mobile life. D. Between 1905 and 1911, these upheavals shook the early 20th-century world and transformed the region through an experiment in constitutionalist ideas by attempting to limit the arbitrary rule of autocracies and introducing popular sovereignty. E. autocracy and a firm commitment to social (W) they were, in a word, democratisers who (X) and economic justice and political freedoms (Y) left an important legacy of bold opposition to (Z) F. In all three cases, these Armenian revolutionaries sought the cure to social and political iniquities in constitutionalism, in parliament, and in some degree of popular sovereignty.Solution
A and D make a pair because A talks about 'Russian, Iranian and Young Turk revolutions' and D refers to these upheavals (a violent or sudden change or disruption to something; synonym of revolutions) with the pronoun 'these'. C should immediately precede A because sentence A refers to a singular revolutionary with the pronoun 'he'; and only C talks about a singular revolutionary (Rostom). Also, C should be the first sentence in the correct sequence because it introduces the revolutionary and the overall theme of the paragraph. Thus, the correct sequence should start with CAD. F uses the phrase 'in all three cases' which refer to the idea stated in D (these upheavals) and hence F should be fourth in the correct sequence. E has been placed in its correct position i.e. fifth in the sequence; that leaves B with only one position - the last. Hence the correct sequence should be CADFEB. The correct arrangement is CADFEB; hence statement E immediately precedes B in the correct arrangement. Answer is option (b).
