Question:

The sentences given in each question, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Each sentences is labelled with a letter. Choose the most logical order of sentences from among the four given choices to construct a coherent paragraph.

This very insatiability of the photographing eye changes the terms of confinement in the cave, our world.
Humankind lingers unregenerately in Plato’s cave, still revelling its age-old habit, in mere images of truth.
But being educated by photographs is not like being educated by older images drawn by hand; for one thing, there are a great many more images around, claiming our attention.
The inventory started in 1839 and since then just about everything has been photographed, or so it seems.
In teaching us a new visual code, photographs alter and enlarge our notions of what is worth looking at and what we have a right to observe.

Explanation:

There is a clear C-D-A link. C mentions a ‘great many images’, D mentions when this started (in 1839) and A expands upon it with ‘this very insatiability’. This eliminates options 1and 2.
B would make for a better introductory statement rather than E since it introduces the topic, while E would make for an effective concluding statement. This eliminates option 4.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
