Final answer:
The correct sequence of events from the text concerning Maxwell and Mijbil is c) 2, 4, 1, 3, where Mijbil first slept far away, later enjoyed playing in the water, and then slept closer to Maxwell.
Step-by-step explanation:
Correctly ordering the events regarding Maxwell and Mijbil requires focusing on the sequence of actions as they are described in the text. After starting the day, Maxwell planned to take Mijbil to the bathroom since it's a logical first step. Once Mijbil is introduced to water, it's reasonable to assume that Mijbil would have a great time playing in it. The increased comfort and bonding could then lead to Mijbil sleeping much closer to Maxwell than before, potentially as a result of the fun and closeness developed during the bath. Given that no feelings of comfort are mentioned initially, the fact that Mijbil originally slept far away implies this might have occurred before the bonding moments took place, making it the first event.
Therefore, the correct sequence would be Maxwell noticing Mijbil's initial sleeping position being distant, followed by shared experiences growing their bond, and then noticing a change in sleeping proximity due to these interactions. Thus, the sequence is as follows: (2) Mijbil slept far away from Maxwell's bed, (1) Maxwell planned to take Mijbil to the bathroom, (3) Mijbil had a great time playing in the water, (4) Mijbil slept much closer to the author compared to the night before. This results in the correct order being option c) 2, 4, 1, 3.
