Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. CADB.
- The first sentence of the para seems to be 'C' because it initiates the sentence about returning to his home.
- The second sentence is 'A' as the moment he returns to his house, he finds the house to be unlocked.
- The third sentence is D as it continues with the flow i.e. he enters his house with fear.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
