Correct answer: B

Explanation

Correct Answer: 1,3,2,4
Explanation:
• Sentence 1 introduces the main subject—the village well and its primary role of providing clean water, making it the ideal opening sentence.
• Sentence 3 follows naturally by describing the daily routine around the well, specifically who arrives early (children with pots).
• Sentence 2 elaborates on the activity mentioned in sentence 3, explaining the process of how water is drawn using ropes and buckets.
• Sentence 4 concludes the sequence by describing the maintenance routine carried out on weekends to keep the well clean.
Quick Tip: Look for the sentence that introduces the main topic first, followed by daily routine details, and finally maintenance or periodic activities.
