B: The next morning, the man thanked Hodja and began taking out the gold coins from his purse. C: He said he would pay ten gold coins to Hodja if he was allowed the privilege. D: A man knocked at his door and asked if he could spend the night in his house. S- 6 But he took out only nine from it and stopped.  Correct Answer DCAB

The correct answer is option 2. 

  • The first sentence would be D as it sheds some light on what Mulla dreamt
  • Sentence C logically follows D as C contains the phrase 'the privilege' which specifies the privilege spoken about in sentence D
  • Sentence A talks in detail about what the Mulla did when he was shown the 'ten gold coins' from sentence C.
  • After the events of that particular night, we come to 'the next morning', which sentence B talks about. Hence, D follows C. 

Thus, the correct order is S1--D--C--A--B--S6.
