If the following words are arranged in alphabetical order as they would appear in a dictionary, which word will come in the second place?

Answer: C. Angry

Answer: C) Angry
Explanation: Look at the first letter of each word. All words start with A. Look at the second letter: n (Anchor), s (Assistant), n (Angry), s (Assure). Since n comes before s in the alphabet, the first two words are Anchor and Angry. Now compare the third letters of Anchor and Angry: the third letter of Anchor is c, and Angry is g. Because c comes before g, the dictionary order is: 1. Anchor, 2. Angry, 3. Assistant, 4. Assure.
