The correct answer is "ACDB".
• The sentence 'A' is independent of any other sentences as it is giving general information about "a boy". Hence, 'A' is the first part.
• The verb "tending" in the sentence 'C' refers back to the verb 'tended' mentioned in the sentence 'A'. Hence, 'C' follows 'A'.
• The noun 'boredom' in the sentence 'D' refers back to 'boring' mentioned in the sentence 'C'. Hence, 'D' follows 'C'.
• The verb 'talked' in the sentence 'B' refers back to 'talking' mentioned in the sentence 'D'. Hence, 'B' follows 'D'.
After rearranging the sentences: A boy tended his master's dogs near a pond. Soon he found the tending and his life there very boring. However, he realized that the way he talked to them never made them happy. All he could do to kill the boredom was by talking to the dogs.
