Answer 1

Hint:The sentences tell us about an incident. The parts of speech have to be in the right order. Try to rearrange them in the order that makes the most sense.

Complete answer: In order to find the correct order of the given sentence,
we must first understand how sentences are constructed. We must first identify the
different parts of speech in the given sentence. The most simple and base level construction in English is ‘subject + verb + object’. However, it becomes a little more complicated when other parts of speech such as adverbs and adjectives come into play. We can add words which describe other words such as adjectives, adverbs, and prepositions.
-The first sentence is a relatively simple sentence. The sentence should start with a gerund. So, the gerund is followed by a preposition and a noun. Then, there should be a modal auxiliary. That should be followed by an adverb and an adjective.
-The second sentence is also simple in terms of construction. So, it should start with the pronoun ‘it’ and the matching adverb with the verb. Then there should be an adverbial phrase before the noun. Then, a preposition and a noun with the article.
-The third sentence is also an easy construction. This sentence also begins with a gerund. It is followed by the adjective, the verb, and the noun.
-The fourth sentence is a more lengthy sentence. It should begin with ‘we’. The pronoun should be followed by a matching verb. Followed by a phrase. Then, there should be a noun phrase.
-The fifth sentence is similar to the fourth sentence. The sentence begins with the pronoun ‘we’. It should be followed by an adverb and an adjective after the verb. Then, a preposition and an article and a noun.
So, the correct answers are as follows:
(a) Travelling to a new country can be very exciting.
(b) It actually requires a lot of preparation before the visit.
(c) Travelling light is the best option.
(d) We also need to keep the local weather in mind.
(e) We always return enriched with the experience.

Note: Make sure that each part of speech aligns with the parts of speech that come before and after. That will help you to choose the order correctly.
