    Solution

    Solution: The sentence ‘C’ introduces the subject of the statement. So, it is the first sentence. ‘B’ continues the idea mentioned in ‘C’. So it is more likely to be the second sentence. Out of ‘A’ and ‘D’, ‘D’ comes first, because, ‘A’ starts with ‘most importantly’, and is likely yo be the last sentence of the passage. So, the correct order is CBDA.
