Direction: Five statements labelled A, B, C, 1 and 2 are given below. Among them, statements A, B and C are in the correct order. Identify the positions of 1 and 2 so as to make a logically coherent paragraph.
(A) The Swedish Academy, which awards the Nobel prize for literature, is meant to be a source of stability: Members are appointed for life.
(B) But it’s been melting down rather spectacularly and publicly over the last year.
(C) Accusations of sexual harassment by more than a dozen women against photographer Jean-Claude Arnault, the husband of academy member Katarina Frostenson, have toppled the institution and revealed it to be riddled with cronyism and abuses of
power.
(1) It’s a fact so embarrassing that the Nobel prize in literature will not even be given out this year as the Academy attempts to salvage its prestige.
(2) Of the 18 chairs in the academy, there are only 10 remaining with active members—in large part because of departures in the wake of the scandal.

The theme of the paragraph is the Nobel prize literature committee which is having a public meltdown. The paragraph should start with statement A only as it introduces the academy as well as provides information about the committee. Hence, options A, B and C are eliminated. Statement C talks about the scandal. it says that a dozen if women have framed charges against the photographer. 2 talks about the remaining members. Naturally, statement 2 follows statement C. Therefore, statement 2 comes next and option E is the apt answer.
