Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: E
Concept
In a sentence-rearrangement (para-jumble) task, the LAST sentence is the one that closes the paragraph: it states the final outcome or conclusion, usually carries a terminal connective such as "thus", "finally", "therefore", or "hence", and there is no remaining sentence that could logically follow it. The opening sentence, by contrast, introduces the topic without referring back to anything.
Application
Reading the six sentences for topic flow gives this coherent order:
A: introduces the topic — AI and robotics as recent technologies and a risk to the world (the opener; it depends on nothing before it).
C: looks at the past history of AI/robotics and their helpful intentions toward humans.
D: "However..." shifts to the present and near future, warning they may become predators — a contrast pivot.
E: explains how they keep developing their capacity and shifting their developing intention to other dimensions.
B: adds that they may also inherit the full nature of creatures.
F: "Thus, finally..." — they will create their new universe or our universe will be in danger.
The sentence beginning “Thus, finally they will create their new universe or the destiny of our universe will be in danger” is the terminal sentence: “thus, finally” signals a summative conclusion and it describes the ultimate consequence, so nothing can follow it. Hence it is the LAST sentence.
Cross-check
Test each candidate as a potential ending: the topic-introducing sentence and the “However…” contrast pivot both clearly expect more text after them, and the two “they are developing… / they may also inherit…” sentences are mid-paragraph elaborations. Only the “Thus, finally… destiny of our universe will be in danger” sentence reads as a closing statement with no possible continuation — confirming the result.
