Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Correct arrangement: 4213

  1. At one time I was giving a seminar for the British marketing department of Ford, the biggest Ford operation outside of Detroit.

  2. We were discussing competing in the European market.

  3. I suggested that Ford should buy up a company called NCP, which owned most of the car parks in the city centers throughout the UK.

  4. If NCP became a Ford company, a notice could be placed at the entrance to all city centers car parks indicating that only Ford cars could use them.

Explanation:

  • The seminar sentence establishes the speaker and context, so it belongs at the start.

  • The sentence about competing in Europe follows naturally as the topic being discussed during the seminar.

  • The suggestion to buy NCP is a response to that discussion, and the final sentence gives the consequence of NCP becoming a Ford company, so consequence must come after the suggestion.
