In this question, there is a list of four sentences marked P, Q, R and S that follows a given sentence that together forms a paragraph. Find the proper sequence of the four sentences and make your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert went home late last night.
P. Somebody had broken open the lock.
Q. To their dismay they found all their things missing.
R. They got into the house with a lot of fear.
S. When they reached home they found the front door open.
The proper sequence should be
Answer: B
The proper sequence is SPRQ.
The story follows the order of events. On reaching home they found the front door open (S). The reason is then given: somebody had broken the lock (P). Alarmed, they went inside with a lot of fear (R), and to their dismay found everything missing (Q).
S must come first because it is the first thing that happened when they reached home, which rules out the sequences starting with R or Q. Q is the climax and the result of entering the house, so it must come after R.
