Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Correct sequence: A B D C
Reasoning:
Start with the introductory sentence "Two vital facts must be understood." because it signals that two facts will follow.
Next comes "The subconscious mind has the power to create." This introduces the subconscious mind, which later sentences refer to.
"Its function is to bring to full expression to whatever is desired by the conscious mind." must follow because the pronoun "its" refers back to the subconscious mind introduced in the previous sentence.
Finally, "The second is that it obeys the orders given to it by the conscious mind." must come last because it explicitly introduces the second fact.
Note: The logically correct order is A, B, D, C (ABDC). None of the four provided answer choices lists ABDC, so the existing solution text that states ABDC is correct but the recorded correct option (ABCD) is inconsistent with the reasoning. The marked correct option is therefore incorrect and should be replaced with ABDC.
Recommendation: Add ABDC as an answer choice (or correct the existing choice to ABDC) and mark it as the correct answer.
