Correct Answer: DABC
Solution : The correct choice is the second option: DABC.
Explanation :
- D. This part introduces the character or role responsible for collecting revenue, setting the context for the sentence.
- A. Following the introduction of the chief collector, this part describes the individual's priority, emphasising that they prioritise their own profit.
- B. This part adds information about the priorities, indicating that after looking to one's own profit, attention is turned to the king's profit.
- C. This part completes the sentence by presenting an alternative outcome, suggesting that if the individual doesn't prioritise properly, it could lead to the destruction of the king's gain.
Therefore, the complete sentence would be: The chief collector of revenue looks first to his own profit and then to the king's or destroys the king's gain altogether.
