Read the sentences. Sentence 1: What a peaceful morning, I thought to myself. Sentence 2: I opened my eyes, lay still for a moment, and listened to the sounds of the forest. Sentence 3: At that very moment, I heard Joaquin frantically scream, "Enzo, come quick! Look!" Sentence 4: The rustling tree branches sounded like hushed whispers, and I wondered what they were saying. What is the most logical way to sequence these sentences to create a logical narrative?

2: I opened my eyes, lay still for a moment, and listened to the sounds of the forest.
4: The rustling tree branches sounded like hushed whispers, and I wondered what they were saying.
1: What a peaceful morning, I thought to myself.
3: At that very moment, I heard Joaquin frantically scream, "Enzo, come quick! Look!"

To create a logical narrative, sentences need to be placed in the order in which the events described would have occured. These sentences should be sequenced in the following order: Sentence 2, Sentence 4, Sentence 1, and then Sentence 3.

The narrative would read as follows:

I opened my eyes, lay still for a moment, and listened to the sounds of the forest. The rustling tree branches sounded like hushed whispers, and I wondered what they were saying. What a peaceful morning, I thought to myself. At that very moment, I heard Joaquin frantically scream, "Enzo, come quick! Look!"

In order to determine this order, start by reading all of your sentences. We can tell from sentence 2 that the character was initially asleep. Because none of the other sentences mention him being asleep, we can start with sentence 2. The character is now awake. Sentence 4 describes the sounds he hears after he is awake, followed by how they make him feel in sentence 1. Then, at the same moment the character was thinking, he heard Joaquin scream, which would be sentence 3.
