In the following items, each passage consists of six sentences. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up. These are labelled P, Q, R and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and indicate your answer accordingly on the Answer Sheet.
S1: What Martin Luther King, the peaceful warrior and his followers suffered, it is very difficult to describe.
S6: For they had taken an oath to 'refrain from the violence of the fist, tongue or heart'.
P: The police used fire hoses and ferocious dogs to rout them.
Q: The law courts sent them to solitary confinement where not a ray of the sun entered.
R: They were abused and stoned by the mob, slapped and kicked by the police.
S: They suffered and tolerated all this without ever lifting a hand in self defence.
The proper sequence should be:
- ASRPQ
- BRPQS
- CPRSQ
- DQRSP
Explanation
R (mob/police violence) starts the list of sufferings, P (fire hoses, dogs), Q (solitary confinement), then S (their non-violent endurance), leading to S6's oath of non-violence.
