Application

Statement C introduces the city ‘Prague’ which is famous for ‘Red roofs’. So, C is the 1st sentence followed by B which tells about the fire incident in the city.

Sentence A will follow it as it tells that many buildings that were destroyed in the fire were rebuilt with red clay tiles. 

Sentence D concludes the passage.    

The correct sentence formation will be:

Prague in the Czech Republic is known for its striking red roofs. In the year 1689, a huge fire engulfed the city. The fire destroyed many buildings which were rebuilt with red clay tiles. Even now, traditional red roofs are included in any repairs or new construction.

Thus, the sequence will be CBAD and the chosen option is correct.
