Correct Answer: ACDB
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
Explanation:
The sequence ACDB describes the flow of information in a coherent manner. Initially, the narrator expresses relief upon getting off at what was believed to be the correct station when the train reached the sixth station (A). However, the situation takes an unexpected turn when the narrator encounters a man nearby and explains the journey. The revelation occurs when the man, with an amused expression, informs the narrator that they had actually travelled in the opposite direction, leading to a sense of alarm (C). The final step (B) involves the narrator describing the man's reaction with a look of amusement on his face, completing the sequence. This order provides a logical progression of events, capturing the initial relief, the realisation of the mistake, and the subsequent interaction with the man.
Therefore, the correct answer is ACDB.
