EnglishOrdering of Words in a Sentence
- AP S R Q
- BP R S Q
- CS P Q R
- DR Q S P
Explanation
The only coherent assembly is P S R Q: 'While some live in luxury, many do not have enough to eat, drink and wear.' The contrast structure requires P ('while some live') with S ('in luxury') first, then R ('many do not have enough') with Q ('to eat, drink and wear') as the infinitive complement. Hence the answer is A.
