The correct answer is DCBA.

Key Points We can look at the given sentence in the following way:

People are ______ (A) in such _____ (B) and look up to the _____ (C) for _____ (D).

  • People are "strength" is contextually incorrect. Here the adjective helpless should be placed in place of the noun "strength" in (A). 
  • The plural noun circumstances should be placed in the place of the noun Almighty in (B) to make the sentence contextually and grammatically correct. 
  • For the sentence to be contextually and grammatically correct the noun Almighty should be placed in (C) instead of the plural noun circumstances
  • In (D) the noun ''strength'' fits aptly as the sentence implies when people become incapable to tackle difficult situations they look up to the almighty for strength.

The correct order of the sentence is: People are helpless in such circumstances and look up to the Almighty for strength.
