consideration for others(P)/ for self-gratification(Q)/ freedom does not mean the opportunity(R)/ or the setting aside of(S)
- AS P Q R
- BQ S P R
- CR P Q S
- DR Q S P
Explanation
R 'freedom does not mean the opportunity' + Q 'for self-gratification' + S 'or the setting aside of' + P 'consideration for others' yields 'Freedom does not mean the opportunity for self-gratification or the setting aside of consideration for others' — a complete, grammatical sentence. No other sequence gives the correct parallel structure ('for self-gratification or the setting aside of'). Hence (d) RQSP.
