Correct Answer: DBCA


Solution : The first option is the correct answer.

Sentence D is the first sentence as it introduces a context, i.e., Priyanka and her sister and the context. The next sentence should be Sentence B because it mentions the reason for calling Priyanka stupid. Sentence C comes next in order because it specifies how she poisoned the speaker's mind when he or she was about to take the first bite of a hot buttered roti. The last sentence should be sentence A, which starts with and. It signifies the connecting link between sentence C and sentence A.

Therefore, the correct answer is DBCA.
