We can solve it using the elimination method. Sentence A cannot be the opening sentence as it is starting with ‘its’. Sentence B indicates that there must be a questioning sentence before it, so it cannot also be the opening sentence. Sentence C can be the opening sentence as it displays a question. Therefore, Sentence B will follow it. Sentence D cannot be the first sentence, as if it will be the opening sentence then it will be followed by sentence B (see option 1), which is not making any sense. |
Sentence D will be the third sentence as it is the answer to the question in sentence B. The last sentence will be sentence A. As the pronoun ‘it’ is used it refers to the ‘Money’ in the previous sentence. Hence, option 4 is correct. |
