In this question we are moving from always to never,
So the sequence should be:
Always->generally->sometimes->seldom -> never
Always : every time.
Generally: usually.
Sometime: on certain occasions.
Seldom: rarely.
Never: at no occasions.
So the sequence should be:
Always->generally->sometimes->seldom -> never
Always : every time.
Generally: usually.
Sometime: on certain occasions.
Seldom: rarely.
Never: at no occasions.

Always means - all of the time(100%).
Generally means - most of the time(80-90%).
Sometimes means - some of the time(above 50%).
Seldom - means very rare (20-30%).
Never - means none of the time(0%).

I also agree with Shruti Raj.Option D is correct.

I agree with choice D ... if we take the sequence and place a context to it to force logic e.g a liking for foodstuffs - u could safely choose in order of precedence.
