If we were to arrange the given sentences in a paragraph, sentence 5 is the best choice to begin the paragraph as it states the main idea. Sentence 5 talks about 'the ability to perceive and interpret other people's behaviour in terms of their mental states'. Sentence 4 follows 5 as it expands on how 'this capacity' develops. Sentence 1 follows 4, explaining how this capacity is useful and 3 concludes the paragraph commenting on when the stated capacity evolved.
Option 2 is the odd one out, as it talks about the importance of mentalizing on the development of one's cognitive abilities. This is not related to the other sentences.
