B: The donkey was happy. C: On the way, they had to cross a stream. D: The salt dissolved in the water and hence the bag became very light to carry. S-6 Then the donkey started to play the same trick every day. Correct Answer CADB
The correct answer is option 3.
- Sentence C contains the phrase 'had to cross', which, in the given context refers to a recurring event.
- Hence, C directly follows S-1 which establishes the recurring event of the salt seller carrying the salt bag on his donkey to the market every day.
- Sentence A follows C as it talks about an event which happened on a particular day and talks about events occurring down the line.
- Sentence D is the logical conclusion of sentence A and should come just after A.
- Sentence B ends the whole thread of events as it brings to the whole sequence, a sense of closure
Hence, the proper sequence of events is S-1--C--A--D--B--S-6
