Explanation:

The opening sentence talks about the outcomes of a natural disaster and that of infrastructure destruction. Statement D talks about what follows a natural disaster and uses the word aftershocks, which inevitably tells us that the disaster that is being talked about is an earthquake. A introduces the word earthquake and names the business houses being closed, thus, should follow B (B talks about business disruptions introduced in D). C is the concluding statement as it gives an overall summary of the after-effects of a natural disaster. Hence, the correct sequence is DBAC.
