Correct Answer: DACB


Solution : The correct choice is the third option: DACB.

The logical flow of sentences is as follows:

  • Sentence D: Initiates the sequence by expressing a personal decision to settle down. Sets the context for subsequent actions and intentions.

  • Sentence A: Follows logically from the decision made in the first sentence. Describes the action taken as a result of the decision, indicating the purchase of a house.

  • Sentence C: Introduces an intention or goal. Provides insight into the motivation behind the decision and action mentioned earlier.

  • Sentence B: Reflects a consequence or motivation stemming from the decision and intention. Indicates the eagerness to demonstrate hospitality, aligning with the decision to settle down.

So, the correct paragraph would be: I decided it was time for me to settle down. This made me eager to welcome the first guest at home and show my hospitality. I intended to be a model citizen in the neighbourhood. Therefore, I bought a good house in a respectable neighbourhood.
