Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Concept: In a sentence-rearrangement (para-jumble) passage, the order is fixed by (a) the topic sentence, which introduces the subject with no backward-pointing connector; (b) sequential connectors such as 'firstly', 'this is because', 'another advantage', 'for example', and 'as a consequence', which chain each sentence to the one before it; and (c) a concluding connector such as 'all in all', which signals the final, summarizing sentence.
Application — tracing the chain:
C introduces the topic — 'Studying abroad has two main benefits' — with no backward reference, so it opens the paragraph.
G follows with 'Firstly,' marking the first benefit: better job opportunities.
B explains why, with 'This is because...' — qualifications and experience gained abroad are valued more.
H adds detail on that same job benefit — higher pay and quicker promotion.
D introduces 'Another advantage' — the second benefit, independence.
A illustrates it with 'For example,' — coping with living alone and meeting new people.
F states the result with 'As a consequence,' — greater confidence in life and relationships.
E closes with 'All in all,' summarizing both benefits — the paragraph's concluding sentence.
Cross-check: E's summary ('studying abroad is a beneficial experience') ties back to the two benefits C promises at the start (job opportunities via G-B-H, and independence via D-A-F), confirming the chain correctly terminates at E.
The correct order is C-G-B-H-D-A-F-E, so the last sentence is E.
