  5. ENone of the above

Answer: D. BDAEC

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e., BDAEC. Explanation: The first statement is B i.e. 'Chang's mother is here' is the introduction of the main idea. The pronoun 'her' in the sentence 'D' refers back to the mother mentioned in the sentence 'B'. Hence, 'D' follows 'B'. A mentions/connects 'the mother's attendance' with 'staggering woes' (overwhelming afflictions or misfortunes). E clearly follows A as it mentions what mother's attendance has to do with; C clearly completes the sentence. (Someone's mien is their general appearance and manner, especially the expression on their face, which shows what they are feeling or thinking.) Additional Information — Important Rules to Solve the Sentence Jumbles: Read the sentences attentively and try to comprehend the idea or theme of the sentences and eliminate the irrelevant options. Try to identify the opening (independent sentence) and closing sentences (concluding sentence). Try to identify the mandatory pairs. Two sentences can be connected through various connectors and other determinants. Identify the pronouns connecting the sentences with each other. Thus the sentence is: 'Chang's mother is here, and her attendance may have something to do with the staggering woe of Chang's mien and play'.
