Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e. BCAD.
- Sentence B introduces us to the story, which is about a place in Thailand making it to the news as Hollywood arrived there to shoot a movie.
- Sentence C talks about certain specifications regarding the movie, such as cast.
- Sentence A adds information on what happened due to the occurrence of the movie-shooting. Since it is a consequence of the events discussed previously it shall follow as the next statement.
- Sentence D adds further details to the information given by the previous statement. That is, it specifies the number of visitors after the previous statement mentioned the thing about flocking tourists.
