Question
A. Have you heard the one about the secularists, the evangelical Christians, the (mostly non-religious) writers and other anti-establishment sorts who met to make common cause in the Palace of Westminster?
B. It sounds likes the first line of a long, laboured joke.
C. This unlikely coalition is among those lining up to challenge the British government's new "counter-extremism" strategy on the grounds that it will curb the entitlement to say sharp, eccentric and edgy things for which Britain is supposedly famous.
D. Well, you soon will.

Answer:
:
Sentence C and D cannot start the first line as they need an underlying context. Between sentences A and B, B will be the starting sentence of the paragraph as it contains the key phrase 'long,labored joke'. Sentence A is a long sentence and mentions the highly unlikely scenario of many disparate groups of people coming together for a common cause. So BA is a pair. D follows A as it is the answer to the question posed by A. Finally, sentence C gives some information about why these people are going to come together.
So the correct sequence is BADC.
