    Solution

    Connectors: A and E A: In times when action movies ruled the roost E: Khyyam’s music was a figurative triumph of violins amidst violence Hence, these two are matched. Connectors: B and D B: Khyyam is no more but D: his melodies 0f matchless tenderness will always be heard and remembered So, these two are also matched with each other meaningfully. C: By launching a trade war against China, the United States government F: that had pressured many a country to liberalise trade and globalise seems to have turned against its own agenda.  No other pair except option 3 shares this relationship and therefore they cannot be combined to form a meaningful sentence.
