Explanation:

- Original Sentence: Governments and (A) contagion institutions can set targets and (B) multilateral for other parties to change their (C) sustainably and use their resources both efficiently and (D) behaviour.

- Identifying the Error: The flow and meaning of the sentence seem off due to misplaced words. The word “contagion” doesn't fit the context, which involves setting targets for change.

- Correct Arrangement:

- A more sensible rearrangement would be “Governments and (B) multilateral institutions can set targets and (A) mandate for other parties to change their (D) behaviour and use their resources both efficiently and (C) sustainably.”

- Replacement Needed:

- Replace “A- contagion” with “A- mandate,” because mandates are used to instruct or make things compulsory, which fits the context.

- Correct Option:

- The correct option is Option: 3 - BACD; A- mandate

- Therefore, the correct rearrangement improves the meaning to state that multilateral institutions can mandate changes in behavior or resource use.
