Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option B i.e.QPRS.
- As the fixed statement talks about the "night" and statement Q tells more about the "night" it will come after the fixed sentence.
- It means Q will be the starting statement.
- As the statement P is adding something to the same situation of Night it will come after Q.
- Now statement R and then statement S will come as it shows the sequential meaning.
- Now we have the arrangement "QPRS".
Hence, the chosen option will be correct.
