Rearrange the following sentences to form a coherent paragraph about the research process:


1. It is a process that involves the systematic and objective investigation of a subject to discover new facts or to confirm existing ones.
2. Research is a foundational pillar of academic and scientific progress.
3. This can be either theoretical, aiming to expand knowledge, or applied, seeking to solve a practical problem.
4. The findings of this investigation are then documented and peer-reviewed to ensure validity and credibility.

Options:

  1. 2, 1, 3, 4
  2. 1, 2, 4, 3
  3. 4, 3, 2, 1
  4. 3, 4, 1, 2

Right Answer: 2, 1, 3, 4

A coherent paragraph should begin by introducing the general topic before moving into specific details. Sentence 2 introduces the topic broadly, stating research is a foundational pillar of progress, making it the natural opening sentence. Sentence 1 then defines what this process involves, i.e., systematic investigation to discover or confirm facts. Sentence 3 further elaborates on the types of research, theoretical and applied. Finally, sentence 4 concludes by describing what happens after the investigation, i.e., documentation and peer review. This creates the flow: introduction (2) → definition (1) → classification (3) → conclusion (4). Therefore, the correct order is 2, 1, 3, 4, making option 1 correct.
