Read the incomplete story.____ Mr. McBride could entertain his friends, he had to get prepared. ____, he went to the store to buy some groceries. ____, he made a salad and put a chicken in the oven. ____ the chicken was roasting, he straightened up his house and changed his clothes.

“Before” shows that Mr. McBride needed to prepare before entertaining his friends. The events then happen in order: “First” he goes shopping, and “Then” he prepares the food. “While” connects the chicken roasting with the tasks he does at the same time, so the correct choice is “Before, First, Then, While.”
