Sounds more like someone who doesn't have English as a first language to
me and this not being able to express their request simply.

What makes me smile is it's fairly obvious from the signal names these
are I2C sensors and nobody has told him to read about I2C.

Hint: Mario, once you have read about I2C you need to find out if the
sensors have different I2C addresses. If they do then you can connect
them in parallel and you are nearly done.

There, a hint on how to proceed without doing the job for the guy. You
can all do it if you try.
