The correct arrangement – (b) ADCEB

B cannot be the first sentence because it starts with ‘both’ which means that it is referring to two persons which have to be mentioned in the sentence it follows or prior to it. So, options d and e get eliminated. Now, A has to be the introductory sentence as it sets the scene of the passage introducing a place called phucxa district where the author says the tip of the plants brushed against his neck. Now, D follows A as it extends the scene by mentioning that the author moves closer to see those plants and discovers the t-shirts of a young child. C must follow D as it says ‘these shirts’ referring to the shirts mentioned in D. E follows C as in C ‘a bare chested man’ is mentioned and the shirtless man in E refers to that man.  B says ‘both invited….’ And this ‘both’ refers to the shirtless man and the woman mentioned in E.
