The most logical order for these sentences is D. 4, 1, 5, 2, 3.

Ordering sentences logically is important in order to build a coherent paragraph, that is, a paragraph that has unity and makes sense. D) is the correct option because the paragraph must start with a presentation of the person that the text is going to talk about, in this case, Dana Torres. Moreover, the word 'trials', which has been used in the first sentence (4), is also used in the second one (1). This contributes to give coherence to the paragraph. Furthermore, the third sentence (5) refers to 'that excellent performance' that has been mentioned in the previous sentence (1). In that way, option D) is the most logical order for these sentences.
