Multiple choice

Directions: In the following question, four statements are provided. These statements form a coherent paragraph when properly arranged. Select the alternative representing the proper and logical sequencing of these statements.

A. There would be no point in our trying to go into the various so called ‘Theories of Truth’ that have been produced and upheld by various philosophers. B. This attempt has in fact given rise to many well–known puzzles and many of them have arisen because of the number of different sorts of assertions that we should normally be prepared to call true or false, to which it is hard to say what sort of facts would correspond. C. There is just one of them that is worth mentioning here, the one which is known as the Correspondence Theory, according to which an assertion is true if, and only if, it corresponds to a fact.
D. This theory is worth mentioning because it arises precisely out of an attempt to build the everyday association between ‘truth’ and ‘fact’ into a systematic and consistent way of thought.
