Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
A, B and D do not fit to be the first sentence of the paragraph because of the usage of the words "since then", "in other words" and "such tests" respectively. They need at least one sentence to appear before them.
Between C and E, E fits to be the best starting sentence.
Next comes D as the author talks about what was the first development that was done in intelligence tests.
D is followed by A as the idea created in D is continued in A.
C and B are a pair and B follows C because the content in B is a rephrase of the content in C
The correct option is (C): EDACB
