Question:

Each of the questions below consists of a set of labelled sentences. These sentences, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Choose the most logical order of sentences from the options.

In the west, Allied Forces had fought their way through southern Italy as far as Rome.
In June 1944 Germany's military position in World War Two appeared hopeless.
In Britain, the task of amassing the men and materials for the liberation of northern Europe had been completed.
The Red Army was poised to drive the Nazis back through Poland.
The situation on the eastern front was catastrophic.

Explanation:

Sentence B is the introductory statement, as it inserts the idea of declining position of Germany in World War II. The rest of the sentences further this idea. Therefore, options 1 and 4 can be eliminated (they do not begin with B).
Sentence B is followed by sentence E, as the discussion begins with hopelessness for Germany at both ends, eastern as well as western. Red Army, Russia would be east and hence D follows E. although, once we have figured out BE, we already have our answer.
Sentence A discusses matters of the west and therefore the sequence is BEDAC.
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
