Correct Answer: BACD


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The logical flow of sentences is:

  • In sentence B, the sequence starts with an unexpected event—an evening when a meteor falls close to the suburban house. This event introduces the central occurrence.
  • Moving to sentence A, it describes the immediate aftermath, where the narrator, along with other curious sightseers, goes to observe the fallen meteor.
  • Sentence C adds details about the appearance of the meteor, specifically noting that only one end of its cylindrical shape was visible, creating intrigue and adding to the description.
  • Finally, sentence D provides quantitative information, specifying the size of the meteor with a diameter of about thirty yards, concluding the narrative with factual detail about the meteor's dimensions.

Therefore, the correct order is BACD.
