Grammer

To arrange the sentences in a coherent order, we need to logically connect the ideas.
- Sentence C provides the background context, explaining the reason for banks' lending practices (to fulfill social objectives set by nationalization).
- Sentence B follows, explaining the consequence of such lending: banks began lending extensively to borrowers with little ability to repay.
- Sentence A then explains the further outcome of this practice: heavy losses incurred by some bank branches, which needed to be bailed out by their parent bodies.
- Sentence D provides a concrete example of the situation in 1992-93, showing how the losses and loss-making branches increased.
Thus, the correct order is CBAD.

The sentence ``Spare the rod and spoil the child" is an example of a conditional statement. The phrase ``spare the rod" suggests that if the rod (a metaphor for discipline) is not used, the consequence will be that the child is spoiled (i.e., undisciplined).
- Option A: ``The child is spoiled if the rod is spared" expresses the condition but does not flow as smoothly as the original sentence in terms of structure.
- Option B: ``The child becomes spoiled when the rod is spared" is close but does not maintain the simplicity and directness of the original sentence. - Option C: ``The child is spoiled whenever the rod is spared" sounds somewhat formal and less straightforward than the original sentence.
- Option D: ``The child is spoiled when the rod is spared" is the most accurate transformation into a complex sentence while maintaining the meaning and simplicity of the original statement.
Thus, the correct answer is Option D.

The given sentence is in the passive voice: ``Then her face was bowed." In passive voice, the subject receives the action, whereas in active voice, the subject performs the action.
- Option A: ``Then she was being bowed her face" is incorrect as it does not form a proper structure in passive or active voice. The use of ``was being bowed" is not appropriate here.
- Option B: ``Her face was bowed by them" is correct in passive voice but does not express the active voice as required by the question.
- Option C: ``Then she bowed her face" is the correct transformation into the active voice. Here, the subject ``she" performs the action of bowing her face.
- Option D: ``Then her face has been bowed" is in present perfect passive, which is not the correct tense for the given sentence. Thus, the correct answer is Option C.

Step 1: To form a meaningful sequence, we need to ensure that the clauses are logically connected.
Step 2: The sentence talks about India facing a challenge due to colonial intrusion and how there was an effort to rejuvenate traditional culture. The best logical flow is:
- Q (challenge of colonial intrusion) comes first, as it sets the context.
- S (effort to reinvigorate traditional institutions) logically follows, as it is the response to the challenge.
- P (traditional culture in pre-independence India) comes next to explain what needed revitalization.
- R (developed during the nineteenth century) concludes by explaining when this revitalization effort happened.
Thus, the correct sequence is option (B) Q - S - P - R.

Step 1: The phrase ``so...that" is used to indicate a result or consequence. In this sentence, the cold was so intense that the consequence was they couldn't go out.
Step 2: The other Option don't fit the context:
- ``Too...to" would mean something was excessively cold to the point of not being able to do something, but ``so...that" is the appropriate construction here.
- ``Neither...nor" and ``either...or" are used for negative or alternative conditions, which don't fit in this case.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A) so, that.

Step 1: To form a logical sequence, we need to understand the context. The sentence talks about the diversified uses of natural gas.
Step 2: The correct sequence is as follows:
- R (natural gas use is emerging) introduces the topic.
- Q (adding a new dimension to the traditional use of gas) follows as it explains the new developments in its use.
- P (using gas as a heating or power generation fuel) gives a specific example of this emerging use.
- S (producing high-quality diesel fuel) concludes with an example of one of the products that can be derived.
Thus, the correct sequence is option (C) {R - Q - P - S}.

Step 1: A fricassee is a type of dish where meat (typically poultry or veal) is cut into pieces and stewed, often with a sauce or gravy.
Step 2: The cooking method ``fricassee" involves simmering or stewing meat, not grilling, decorating, or basting.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C) stew.
