    (A) a piece of bread

    (B) driven by

    (C) stole a

    (D) hunger he

    A (B), (D), (A), (C) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B (C), (D), (A), (B) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C (B), (D), (C), (A) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D (A), (C), (B), (D) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phrase "driven by" indicates the motive or reason. "Hunger he" is rearranged to "he hunger" to form the subject of the sentence. "Stole a" is rearranged to "he stole a" to form the action of the sentence. "A piece of bread" remains unchanged and functions as the direct object of the action. So, when arranged in the order (B), (D), (C), (A), the words/phrases form a correct and coherent sentence: "Driven by hunger, he stole a piece of bread."
