BDCA
Step 1 — find the opener. B defines the key term: 'The art of keeping our body, mind, residence, workspace, and surroundings clean is referred to as cleanliness.' A definition introduces the topic and depends on nothing before it, so B comes first. Notice that A, C and D all assume the reader already knows what cleanliness means.
Step 2 — the illustration. D lists examples of what has just been defined: cleaning clothes, streets, surroundings and homes. Examples must follow the definition they illustrate.
Step 3 — the significance. C moves from describing cleanliness to saying why it matters — it is 'critical for our social and mental well-being'. This supplies the reason that the conclusion will rest on.
Step 4 — the conclusion. A opens with 'Therefore', an unmistakable conclusion marker, so it must close the paragraph. It draws the inference the reader has been prepared for: make hygiene a habit.
Definition → examples → importance → conclusion gives BDCA.
Takeaway: in this kind of paragraph, look first for a definition and last for a sentence beginning Therefore, Thus, Hence or So. Fixing the first and last sentences usually settles the middle by elimination.
