In this section each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

Explanation
S1 praises the persevering man's success; Q ('Continuous labour or application is sure to make success certain') links directly to 'success'. P ('There is a way to accomplish a work in a better way') and S ('Labour is the key to success') develop the labour theme, and R ('No one can deprive him of this success') echoes Q's 'success' and parallels S6's 'No one who is honest... can ever fail'. Note: a published key gives (c) PSQR for this item, so the middle order is genuinely ambiguous — key disputed — but QPSR is retained as the stored answer.
