    A Both BEI & AFH Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both AFH & CEG Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both BID & CFG Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both BDI & AEH Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Both AEI & BFG Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    AFH: A talks about a certain fact regarding conversation. F further discusses why such a fact prevails. H concludes the statement by talking about the misconception regarding good conversations. Overall, the statement conveys that a good conversation is generally cut short because people believe that a conversation that continues for more than a few minutes is a boring one. BDI: B talks about self-motivation. D and I carry forward the statement and talk about what drives self-motivation. B ends with 'personal' which is an adjective. So, the next clause must be the one that starts with a noun (because an adjective modifies a noun). 'Personal' qualifies the noun 'desire'. Hence, D follows B. CEG: C and E discuss that there is a lack of clarity regarding what we want and what success looks like and what its impact is. G concludes the statement by saying that it is this lack of clarity that makes efforts less directionally focussed.
