Hint: While forming the sentence try to find a chronological, logical or sequential order between the given sentences. Which when combined together gives some meaning to the whole paragraph.

Complete solution: Now let us try and figure out the most appropriate sentence for the above given blank –if you read the 1st and 3rd sentences, you will see, there is an activity taking place, i.e. parking the scooter in a particular lane which is letter changed, i.e. scooter has been asked to be parked in the parking lot. What does this tells us?
Well, this tells us that there is some problem in the initial arrangement when the scooter was parked in the lane, now we need to choose the sentence which communicates this effectively and logically, and then leads us to the 3rd sentence i.e. change of parking place to the parking lot.
Now,
Option a, says that everybody parks in the lane. If this is correct, then there is no reason to change the parking place.
Option b, indicates there is a fear of the scooter being stolen. Hence, the logical thing to do is to change the parking place to the parking lot.
Option c, indicates it is quite a safe place. Then changing the parking place to a parking is not needed.
Option d, it talks about trees in the lane. But that is no reason to move the scooter.

Hence, as you can see option b is the correct answer here.

Note: You must always remember that there is some connection between the sentences given. If you find the connection you will find the correct answer.
