2.DABC
3.ADCB
4.BACD
5.DCAB
Correct Answer : 4
Solution :
Sentence B introduces the person 'Mitchell' and it also talks about his family. It says that he knew hard work. Sentence A should follow sentence B as it states the reason for his hard work as his father was no more. Sentence C should come at the third position as it states what he did to support his family, and sentence D should be the last sentence as it talks about the additional income that he brought.
So, BACD is the correct order.
Hence, (d) is the correct answer.
