Solution

The correct sequence is A. 1 3 2 4 5.

Here's why:

  1. "Things were at an all time low when the new CEO was onboarded." This sentence sets the stage for the situation the new CEO is stepping into.

  2. "At the outset, she began making some pretty radical changes." This sentence introduces the CEO's actions.

  3. "One would expect cuts to be made in employee benefits and expenses that are often regarded as superfluous." This sentence sets up the expectation of what a CEO might typically do in such a situation.

  4. "But she instead increased salaries by 8%, added 2 sick leaves for everyone, and restarted Casual Fridays." This sentence reveals the surprising actions the CEO took, which contrast with the expectations set up in the previous sentence.

  5. ""The employees' trust needed to be won back", she said in an interview later. And win back trust she did." This sentence concludes the passage by explaining the CEO's rationale and the successful outcome of her actions.
