Correct answer: C

Correct sequence: Most computer users develop disorders because they ignore warnings like tingling fingers, a numb hand or a sore shoulder; They keep pointing and dragging until tendons chafe and scar tissue forms, along with bad habits that are almost impossible to change; Thus begins the search for relief: painkillers, ice, yoga, herbs, even surgery; But cures are elusive, because repetitive stress injuries present a bag of ills that often defy easy diagnosis.

  1. Most computer users develop disorders because they ignore warnings like tingling fingers, a numb hand or a sore shoulder.

  2. They keep pointing and dragging until tendons chafe and scar tissue forms, along with bad habits that are almost impossible to change.

  3. Thus begins the search for relief: painkillers, ice, yoga, herbs, even surgery.

  4. But cures are elusive, because repetitive stress injuries present a bag of ills that often defy easy diagnosis.

Why this order works:

  • Start: Introduce the problem and warnings so readers know what the paragraph is about.

  • Cause: Describe the repetitive actions that produce the injuries, which logically follows the introduction.

  • Response: After the injuries occur, people begin searching for relief; this sentence naturally follows the cause.

  • Conclusion: The final sentence stating that cures are elusive wraps up the paragraph by explaining the difficulty of resolving the problem.
