If we modify the condition and the question, and if A~B:w, B~C:x, C~D:y, D~E:z, the question becomes w<y?.
Looking at the condition 1), we get w+x<x+y --> w<y.
Looking at the condition 2), we get, w+x+y<x+y+z --> w<z. Since the condition 1) is sufficient, the correct answer is A.
Looking at the condition 1), we get w+x<x+y --> w<y.

Statement 1
The distance between A and С < distance between В and D.
Distance between A and C= Distance between A and B + Distance between B and C
Distance between B and D= Distance between B and C + Distance between C and D
Distance between A and B + Distance between B and C < Distance between B and C + Distance between C and D
or Distance between A and B < Distance between C and D. Sufficient
Statement 2
The distance between A and D is less than the distance between В and E
distance between A and D = Distance between A and B + Distance between B and C + Distance between C and D
the distance between В and E= Distance between B and C + Distance between C and D + Distance between D and E
Distance between A and B + Distance between B and C + Distance between C and D< Distance between B and C + Distance between C and D + Distance between D and E
Distance between A and B + Distance between B and C < Distance between B and C + Distance between D and E. Not sufficient
A is the answer
