Question

Parts of a sentence are given below in jumbled order. Select the option that gives their correct logical sequence and forms a meaningful sentence.
In November, Lakshman fell (P) / with fever (Q) / seriously ill (R) and pneumonia (S).

A.

P, Q, S, R

B.

P, R, Q, S

C.

P, Q, R, S

D.

R, Q, S, P

Correct option is B

The correct sequence of the sentence is P, R, Q, S:
"In November, Lakshman fell seriously ill with fever and pneumonia."
Explanation of the correct sequence:
· P (In November, Lakshman fell) begins the sentence logically by introducing the subject and the context.
· R (seriously ill) follows naturally to describe the condition.
· Q (with fever) specifies the illness.
· S (and pneumonia) completes the list of health issues.
Why Other Options Are Incorrect:
· (a) P, Q, S, R: Places "with fever" and "pneumonia" together before describing the seriousness, which disrupts the logical flow.
· (c) P, Q, R, S: Incorrectly places "seriously ill" after "with fever," making the sentence less coherent.
· (d) R, Q, S, P: Starts with "seriously ill," which lacks context and does not form a meaningful beginning.
