Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. DCBA

  • The best approach for such a question is by finding out an opening sentence followed by pair of sentences.
  • Sentence D is the opening statement as it mentions the crash.
  • Sentence D is followed by Sentence C as it tells about the subject looking for his mother post the crash.
  • Sentence C will be followed by sentence D as it talks about the subject's mother using the pronoun 'her'.
