Answer: Option C
:
C
We see a link between statements D and A. D talks about how just about everything has been photographed and A follows it up by mentioning "this insatiability”. Hence DA is the link. This rules out options (a) and (b). We can see that all the statements are talking about photographs of something. Only B introduces the topic of images in Plato's cave. Hence B is the introductory statement. Hence option (c) is the answer.
