The correct order of the given sentences is as follows.
- (iii)- "Reuben stopped at a construction site."
- Sentence (ii), "Reuben Earle saw something in a shop window." comes next.
- (iv)- "Reuben asked the shop-keeper to keep the item for him." is the third sentence.
- (i)- "The shop-keeper agreed to keep the item for a while."
- Sentence (ii) gives us a reason why Reuben stopped in sentence (iii). Hence it comes second, after (iii).
- Sentence (iv) tells us what happened inside the shop, the event which occurred only after the events of (ii). Sentence (i) gives the reply of the shopkeeper to the conversation in (iv). Hence, it comes last.
