Each of the following items in this section consists of a sentence, the parts of which have been jumbled. These parts have been labelled as P, Q, R and S. Each sentence is followed by four sequences, namely (a), (b), (c) and (d), indicating the rearrangement of the parts. You are required to select the most appropriate option and mark your response on the Answer Sheet accordingly.
P. it is a fact that rice is one of the most prolific
Q. than almost any other crop
R. yielding a greater return per acre
S. of food crops
- ASRQP
- BRPSQ
- CQRSP
- DPSRQ
Explanation
‘P’ will be the first part of the given sequence as ‘it is a fact’ leads to the beginning of the sentence. ‘S’ will follow next as “most prolific of food crops” makes a logical phrase. ‘R’ will come next because it says that being a prolific food crop, it yields a greater return per acre. ‘Q’ will come last because the comparative term ‘than’ shows that it is used in the context of the ‘return per acre’ in the very previous part. Hence, PSRQ is the correct sequence. Thus, option (d) is correct.
