(a) is the right answer DCAB is the correct sequence and part E is the odd part. D begins with establishing the subject of the sentence as cell phone plans - cell phone plans around the globe are not all the same. Then C follows by telling us how it is costlier in the US - some have even said that cell phone plans in the US are more costly than those in many other countries. A follows by stating the difference between the US and other countries which might have caused this- the reasons provided are many but one of course is that nations such as the US are larger and many people live more remotely than in most European countries. B concludes by telling the reason behind the cost- thus the costs for the infrastructure are greater. E is the odd part as it talks about the plan which is prominent in the US - Cell phone plans which offer unlimited nights and weekends and free nationwide long distance are predominate in the US and has not been discussed in any other part, it fails to link itself coherently with any of the other parts of the sentence.
