Rearrange the following jumbled parts which are labelled as (P), (Q), (R) and (S) to produce the correct sentence. Choose the proper sequence.
The guide said that
(P) Nowhere in The World
(Q) a fairer building
(R) You will find
(S) than the Taj Mahal
The proper sequence should be
Answer: B
The proper sequence is PRQS: The guide said that nowhere in the world you will find a fairer building than the Taj Mahal.
Nowhere in the world (P) sets the scope, you will find (R) supplies the verb, and its object a fairer building (Q) must come next, with the comparison than the Taj Mahal (S) completing it. A comparative such as fairer must come before its than phrase.
RQPS and RQSP separate nowhere in the world from the start of the clause or put it after the comparison, and PSQR puts than the Taj Mahal before a fairer building. (In formal English the verb would be inverted, will you find, but the parts are given as printed.)
