The sentences given below, when properly sequenced, would yield a coherent paragraph. Decide on the proper sequencing of the order of the sentences and key in the sequence of the numbers as your answer.

  1. Women may prioritize cooking because they feel they alone are responsible for mediating a toxic and unhealthy food system.
  2. Food is commonly framed through the lens of individual choice: you can choose to eat healthily.
  3. This is particularly so in a neoliberal context where the state has transferred the responsibility for food onto individual consumers.
  4. The individualized framing of choice appeals to a popular desire to experience agency, but draws away from the structural obstacles that stratify individual food choices.

Entered answer:

Solution

βœ… Correct Answer: 2431

Step-by-step thinking process:

Start with the topic introduction -> Look for sentences that introduce the main idea first. Sentence 2 talks about "food is commonly framed through individual choice" - this sounds like an opening statement.

Find continuation signals -> Sentence 4 mentions "individualized framing" which directly connects to sentence 2's "individual choice." This builds on the opening idea.

Look for context words -> Sentence 3 starts with "This is particularly so" which means it's explaining when or why the previous idea happens. It provides context for the individualization.

Find the specific example -> Sentence 1 narrows down to women specifically, giving a concrete example of how this food responsibility plays out.

From passage: "Food is commonly framed through the lens of individual choice" -> "The individualized framing of choice" -> "This is particularly so in a neoliberal context" -> "Women may prioritize cooking because they feel they alone are responsible"

Flow: General concept (2) -> Expansion with critique (4) -> Context explanation (3) -> Specific example (1)


Quick elimination strategy: Look for opening sentences (broad statements without "this," "these," "such") and connecting words ("this is particularly," "the individualized framing").

🟒 Sequence 2431 is correct -> follows logical progression from broad concept to specific example with proper connecting language

The answer flows: Individual choice concept -> Critique of this framing -> Context for why this happens -> Specific example with women
