A. The first man, Bennett Cerf, was the founder of the publishing firm, Random House and the second man was Theo Geisel, known as Dr. Seuss.
B. Since publication, Green Eggs and Ham has sold more than 200 million copies, making it the most popular of Seuss's works and one of the best-selling children's books in history.
C. In 1960, two men made a bet, but millions of people felt the impact of this little wager.
D. Dr. Seuss took the bet and won, the result was a little book called Green Eggs and Ham.

1.CAEDB
2.ACDEB
3.BAECD
4.BDAEC
5.ABCDE
Correct Answer : 1
Solution :
Clearly, 'C' is the opening statement of the passage because it creates a base for the whole story that follows. 'C' is followed by 'A' as it names those two men whose mention is there in 'C'.
Mandatory pair, E-D:
E is followed by D because very clearly, 'Cerf' proposed the bet and 'Dr. Seuss' accepted that bet.
Finally, 'B' will follow 'D' and the link is the book 'Green Eggs and Ham'.
The correct order is: CAEDB. Hence, option (a) is correct.
