a. ABCDE
b. CBADE
c. DCBAE
d. CDBAE

ANSWER: CBADE
 
The first sentence here should be C, as it introduces us to the idea of will mentioned in the paragraph.

Thus, we can eliminate option 1 and 3.

The next sentence should be B as it introduces the views of a lawyer.

Following B, should be A because it tells us the reason why lawyer suggested young people as witness.

The next sentence should be D as it tells us that it would be helpful if doctor is a witness.

The last sentence should be E.

The correct sequence should be “CBADE”
