Key Points

  • Going through all the statements, we easily figure out the first sentence will be statement D It is independent and introductory. It introduces the subject i.e. natural resources.
  • The second sentence will be statement C, as in this sentence; we read some of the examples of - natural resources which have been defined in the first sentence. 
  • Out of the remaining two statements, the fourth sentence will be statement A as the conjunction ‘while’ used in statement A indicates a contrast. Statement B states that most of the natural resources are found naturally and need no tools and technology to bring them into use. Statement A states that for some natural resources tools and technology are needed. So contextually, statement A will come after statement B.
  • So the remaining statement,i.e. statement B, will come third in the order. 


Thus, the correct arrangement would be DCBA.
