    Which of the following will be the Last sentence?
    Solutions
    The first sentence should open the discussion and the sentence “B” opens the discussion on “UN adopting the global compact”. the statement “B” should be followed by “D” where the agreement is discussed in detail. Statement “C” where a slight introduction of nation stepping away from the agreement is mentioned, should follow statement “D”, which is in continuation of statement D. Now statement “A” should follow statement C as the stepping away of US and its effects is discussed in the statement A. statement “F” should follow “A” as it is in the continuation with the statement F and the last statement should be statement “E” where what need to be done is discussed. Thus, the correct sequence is BDCAFE.

    The elephant stampeded and tore _____ the streets.
    Solutions
    "Tore down" is the correct answer. It is because "tear down" is a phrasal verb which means to intentionally destroy a building or other structure. In the sentence, it would mean the elephant went to the streets and damaged it.
    We do not use "on" after "tear" since it is grammatically incorrect. “Tear off/ out” is used when we relate something to do with fibers like paper, cloth etc.

    The appointment of auditors is done by the Reserve Bank in _______ with the Central Government.
    Solutions
    In the above statement, we need a noun in blank. Option A gets eliminated because ‘asking’, a verb, cannot be preceded by the preposition “with”. Options C and D do not fit contextually. So, they both get eliminated. In Option E, with ‘absence’, the preposition, ‘of’ can be used. Hence, the only option that fits contextually and grammatically is B.
