order and logically construct a paragraph. The timeline may be in hours frame, years months or
simplyconstructedusingtransitionwords.

B:Thenextdevelopmentinaccuracyoccurredafter1656withtheinventionofthependulumclock.
C:Clockshaveplayedanimportantroleinmanshistory.
D: Springdriven clocks appeared during the 15th century, although they are often erroneously
creditedtoNurembergwatchmakerPeterHenlenaround1511.
