A policeman 
(P) to abide 
(Q) if he has to do well, 
(R) by the strict letters of the law 
(S) cannot afford

  • A.PRQS
  • B.RQPS
  • C.QSPR
  • D.SPRQ

Answer: C

Correct answer: QSPR

The sentence reads:

A policeman, if he has to do well, cannot afford to abide by the strict letters of the law.

Q is a parenthetical if clause and sits between the subject and its verb; S then supplies that verb. P and R complete the infinitive to abide by, which cannot be split.
