In this section each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. Find the proper sequence.
S1: Few scientists manage to break down the walls of the so-called ivory tower of academia and touch and inspire people who may not otherwise be interested in science.
S6: Not many would have survived this, let alone excelled in the manner he did.
P: It is aimed at achieving a shift to sustainable fuels, getting cities to commit to eco-friendly mobility and delivering more walkable communities, all of which will improve the quality of urban life.
Q: At the Bonn conference, a new Transport Decarbonisation Alliance has been declared.
R: This has to be resolutely pursued, breaking down the barriers to wider adoption of rooftop solar energy at every level and implementing net metering systems for all categories of consumers.
S: Already, the country has chalked out an ambitious policy on renewable energy, hoping to generate 175 gigawatts of power from green sources by 2022.
[Note: the middle sentences as printed do not cohere with S1/S6; the source appears to have interchanged the middle sentences of Q37 and Q38.]
- AS R Q P
- BS P R Q
- CP R S Q
- DQ R S P
Explanation
Note: the source interchanged the middle sentences of Q37 and Q38; as printed, Q38's P/Q/R/S are the climate sentences matching its options. S states India's ambitious renewable-energy policy (175 GW by 2022); R says this must be resolutely pursued (rooftop solar, net metering); Q cites the Bonn Transport Decarbonisation Alliance; P details its aims (sustainable fuels, walkable communities) — flowing into S6's electric-mobility template. The chain is S-R-Q-P. Hence (A).
