Option 1 : CDAB

The correct answer is 'CDAB'.

  • The given question is an example of a Sentence Jumble.
  • We know that the first statement of a sentence jumbled question is usually an independent general statement, a noun, a universal fact, starting of an incident, or it starts with 'most' or 'once'.
  • Sentence C in the given question is the starting of an incident. It talks about 'the Mehras'. 
  • Sentence D will be the next sentence because the author and his wife asked them for any help as 'the Mehras' were the newcomers.
  • Sentence A will be the next sentence because after talking to 'the Mehras' the author found that they were very quiet in nature.
  • Lastly, Sentence D will be used.
  • Thus, the sequence becomes:
    • C: The Mehras were newcomers to the neighbourhood.
    • D: My wife and I called on them to ask if they needed any help.
    • A: We found both to be very quiet and subdued.
    • D: Later when we became good friends, they told us about their tragic loss.
  • Therefore, as per the points mentioned above, we find that the correct answer is Option 1.
     

Correct Sequence: The Mehras were newcomers to the neighbourhood. My wife and I called on them to ask if they needed any help. We found both to be very quiet and subdued. Later when we became good friends, they told us about their tragic loss.
