    Solution

    Solution: ‘D’ is the first sentence of the passage. It introduces the subject. ‘B’ is the second sentence. It says what he did with the stolen meat next. The third sentence is ‘C’. It says what the dog thought when he saw the reflection. The action of the thought comes next. So, ‘A’ is the last statement.
