Rearrange the following sentences to form a coherent paragraph.


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 must open with a general topic sentence. Sentence two performs that role by introducing research as a foundational pillar of academic and scientific progress. Sentence one follows naturally because the pronoun 'It' refers back to research and defines what the process involves. Sentence three then elaborates, since 'This' points to the investigation just described and divides it into theoretical and applied types. Sentence four closes the paragraph by explaining what happens to the findings afterwards, namely documentation and peer review. Hence the correct order is 2, 1, 3, 4.
