    Reading Comprehension

    Read the given information carefully and answer the related questions:
    Fourteen persons sit in two parallel rows in such a way that seven persons sit in each row. A, B, C, D, E, F, G sit in row 1 and face north while P, Q, R, S, T, U, V sit in row 2 and face south (but not in the same order as given). Persons of both rows face each other.
    F is the only neighbor of A. Three persons sit between U and the one who faces F. P sits adjacent to U who does not sit opposite to B. Number of persons sit to the left of P and to the left of D are same. T sits opposite to the one who sits second to the left of C. G sits to the right of C but does not sit at the end. R sits immediate left of Q and second to the right of V. A doesn't sit opposite to Q.
