(C) aggression, when channelled constructively and focused
(D) urging us to overcome hurdles, and persist through adversity
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
Option 1: (C), (B), (D), (A) -> Creates an illogical flow where "focused" connects awkwardly to "to achieve" and the sentence structure breaks down.
Option 2: (C), (B), (A), (D) -> Places (B) immediately after (C), disrupting the natural completion of "focused on a positive purpose" phrase.
Option 3: (B), (A), (C), (D) -> Begins with an infinitive phrase without establishing the subject, making the sentence grammatically incomplete.
Option 4: (C), (A), (D), (B) -> Forms a coherent structure: subject with conditions (C) + main predicate (A) + participial phrase showing how (D) + purpose clause (B).
Hence, Option 4: (C), (A), (D), (B) -> The sentence reads: "Aggression, when channelled constructively and focused on a positive purpose, can serve as a powerful driving force, urging us to overcome hurdles, and persist through adversity to achieve ambitious goals that once seemed unattainable." This follows proper grammatical structure with the subject introduced first, followed by the main clause, a participial modifier, and concluding with the purpose infinitive. -> correct
