The correct answer is C. i took the test so thats the right answer
The correct answer is C indeed. You should always use pointing words. If you don't your paragraphs might be incoherent and may lack cohesiveness.
I don't see any options, but if there is a "clue" that states that using words like "Finally, next, now" and so on is how you can cell that an author is using chronological order, I'd choose that one.
I sincerely hoped that helped, have a good day.
