    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.
