Question: The four sentences (labelled 1, 2, 3, and 4) given in this question, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Decide on the proper order for the sentences and key in this sequence of four numbers as your answer.
The woodland’s canopy receives most of the sunlight that falls on the trees.
Swifts do not confine themselves to woodlands, but hunt wherever there are insects in the air.
With their streamlined bodies, swifts are agile flyers, ideally adapted to twisting and turning through the air as they chase flying insects – the creatures that form their staple diet.
Hundreds of thousands of insects fly in the sunshine up above the canopy, some falling prey to swifts and swallows.
Statement 1 is the first sentence of the paragraph followed by statement 4 as the former talks about the woodland’s canopy while the latter mentions how insects can be found in the sunshine above this canopy. Statement 4 also mentions that these insects are eaten by swifts and swallows. Thus statement 3 follows statement 4 as it mentions why insets are a staple diet of swifts. Statement 2 is the last sentence in the paragraph as it mentions that the hunting grounds of the swifts are not restricted to the woodlands but anywhere that insects are found.
