The most common way to start a sentence is with a/an

A. present participle.

B. subject.

C. dependent adverbial clause.

D. infinitive.

The most common way to start a sentence is with a B. subject. In English, usually the sequence of these parts of a sentence is the following one - SVO, which stands for subject-verb-object. Modifiers come either last or sometime after the subject of the sentence. Usually, you wouldn't start a sentence with a participle, clause, or infinitive, but that can also sometimes happen.
