• C. B, A, D, C
• D. B, C, D, A

Hint:

Sports pages usually come at the back; news pages come first.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understand the question.
We must put four sections of a daily newspaper in the order a reader meets them. The order follows the usual layout of Indian dailies.

Step 2: Recall the layout.
After the front page, a daily usually runs city or local news and national or regional news, then the editorial and opinion pages, and the sports pages come near the back.

Step 3: Place the news pages first.
City page (B) and National/Regional page (C) come in the early pages, so they lead the list. In the options that keep B before C, the list starts with B, C.

Step 4: Place the editorial page.
The editorial page (D) comes after the news pages, because opinion follows reporting. So D follows C.

Step 5: Place the sports page.
The sports page (A) is generally placed at the end. So A is last.

Step 6: Check the options.
Option 1 puts the editorial first, which is not usual. Option 2 puts sports first. Option 3 puts sports before the editorial. Option 4 gives B, C, D, A, which fits the layout.

Final Answer:
The order is City, National/Regional, Editorial, Sports. This is option 4, the best fit. \[ \boxed{\text{B, C, D, A (Option 4)}} \]
