Answer 1

Hint: To arrange sentences in a logical order, we should read all the sentences first to get a clear picture of what all events are happening. Once we have all the events in our mind, we can figure out which event is followed by which event.

Complete step-by-step answer:

 Out of the given sentences, let us look at sentence A. The word ‘he’ makes us doubt who this ‘he’ is. A pronoun cannot be used in an introductory sentence. Therefore sentence A cannot be the first sentence.
Now let us look at sentence B. It tells us that there is a person who is ‘my friend’. It looks like a good introductory sentence as well. Sentence C again has a pronoun ‘his’ so it cannot be the first sentence. Sentence D has the pronoun ‘he’.
Out of all the given sentences, sentence B is the first sentence. Sentence C is the second sentence because it provides a follow-up to the first sentence: My friend selected everything he needed very quickly but his selections were fantastic. Sentence A is the third sentence because it is questioning the friend’s ability on a fact that was mentioned in the earlier sentence. Ultimately, sentence D gives the answer to the question that though the friend selected everything very quickly, all selections were fantastic because he has experience in a marketing job for many years.
Therefore, the correct option is c.

Note: It is very important to read all the sentences before arranging them in order. Every sentence needs to be compared to the other one to see if they are in a logical sequence.
