a) abcd b) acbd c) cabd d) dabc
‘ab’ is concomitant as ‘but’ of ‘b’ contrasts the western
culture’s overvaluation of ‘the tragic’ and undervaluation
of ‘the comic’ with the Greek’s in ‘a’. The ‘This is why’ of ‘c’
is an extension of ‘b’; so ‘abc’ is concomitant. ‘d’ is provided
as a solution and so should end the paragraph.
