Correct Answer BDAC

The correct answer is option 2.

  • Sentence B gives us an introduction to the whole subject matter. Hence, it is the first sentence after the rearrangement. 
  • Sentence D gives us some details about the things referred to in sentence B. Hence D follows B
  • Sentence A comes next as it serves to further the thread of events. 
  • Sentence C contains the word 'that' which is used to specify Jupiter's wedding in sentence A. Thus, C follows A. 

Hence, after rearrangement the proper sequence would be BDAC.
