The proper sequence should be :
EnglishOrdering of Words in a Sentence
- AP Q R S
- BP Q S R
- CQ S R P
- DQ S P R
Explanation
The proper order is Q-S-R-P, option (c). The full sentence is: ‘He approached the teacher to know how his son was getting on in his studies at school’. ‘To know’ (Q) expresses the purpose of approaching the teacher. S states what he wanted to know, and R narrows it to his studies. P (‘at school’) naturally closes the sentence.
