A Correct answer
Explanation

As sentence C begins with words 'They say that the ……', so logically, the preceding sentence shall contain information about who 'They' are. It is most suitably available in sentence 1. So, 1C shall form a pair. Similarly, reasoning can help us mark D and B as a pair of sentences in order BD. Sentence A can not be placed before BD and therefore, it can be placed only after BDA. This reasoning is validated only by sequence available in option (1). Therefore, option (1) can be marked as correct answer.
