    Direction: In the paragraph below given there are five sentences. In each sentence there are pairs of highlighted words [a, b]. Select the most appropriate words to form correct sentences. Then, from the options given select the correct option.
    Pie charts are another extremely effective [A] visual [B] graph presentation of data. They show what proportions make up a whole. Each segment should be [A] cleared [B] differentiated by shading, cross-hatching or colour and should be [A] labelled [B] articulated horizontally. [A] Initially [B] conventionally, the largest slice begins at the 12 0' clock position then slices are sequenced clockwise in [A] descending [B] clarified positions.
    The correct sequence should be

    A) ABABA

    B)                    BBABA

    C) BABBA          

    D)        BAABA

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Sol.      [a] The correct sequence of the words filled in the blanks is ABABA as in first blank, 'visual' will be used as pie charts are not graphical representation. Each segment in a pie chart is separated therefore, 'differentiated' is the correct word for the second blank. Each segment in a pie chart is 'labelled' according to the data therefore, 'labelled' will be used in the third blank. 'Conventionally' means normally which is appropriate in the fourth blank while in the last blank, 'descending" will be used as the sequence of the slices in a pie chart is always descending.
