In the following question, there are five sentences. The sentence labelled A is in its correct place. The four that follow are labelled B, C, D
and E, and need to be arranged in the logical order to form a coherent paragraph. From the given options, choose the most appropriate
option.
A. Many linguists, including leading thinkers Noam Chomsky and Steven Pinker, view language in the technical, cognitive sense as
consisting of basic elements.
B. She also has a rule of morphology that tells her the plural is 'hats' and a rule of syntax that says when there's an adjective, put it first:
'red hat,' not 'hat red'.
C. There are words (the lexicon) and then there are mental rules for building words or combining them into sentences (the grammar).
D. And she has certain genetic – not learned – cognitive structures such as the knowledge that nouns and adjectives are different parts of
speech and that one modifies the other, which allow her to understand that 'red' describes a type of 'hat', but 'hat' does not describe a
type of 'red'.
E. An English speaker, for example, has in her mental dictionary the word 'hat', which is simply an arbitrary string of sounds she has
learned to associate with an object one wears on one's head.

In the following question, there are five sentences. The sentence labelled A is in its correct place. The four that follow are labelled B, C, D
and E, and need to be arranged in the logical order to form a coherent paragraph. From the given options, choose the most appropriate
option.
A. The Earth orbits around the Sun, returning to the same position relative to the distant stars once every year.
B. Likewise, Venus moves around the Sun 1.63 times every time Earth orbits just once.
C. That kind of statement is extremely meaningful – without recourse to the concept of a 'year', we can say that Earth moves around the
Sun 1.88 times every time Mars orbits just once.
D. By itself, that's not so meaningful – it's just the definition of a 'year'.
E. But Mars, as it turns out, returns to the same position once every 1.88 years.
