Key Points

  • 'Sentence a' is telling us that the bees communicate the location of honey with each other by dancing.
  • Therefore, 'sentence a' will come first.
  • 'Sentence c' is telling us that they march in a line to gather that honey whose location has been communicated by a dance.
  • Therefore, 'sentence c' will come in the second place.
  • After gathering honey they work very hard to store that honey for winter.
  • Therefore, 'sentence b' will come in third place.
  • 'Sentence d' is telling us the moral that we should learn cooperation and hard work from bees.
  • So, 'sentence d' will come in the last.
  • Therefore, the correct order is 'a c b d'.
  • Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
