The first part 'He wrapped himself' is fixed.

He wrapped himself / two sweatshirts (P) / with a blanket, (Q) / was wearing (R) / though he (S)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. S, P, Q, R.

The fixed part is “He wrapped himself”.

The sentence should logically continue as:

S: though he

P: two sweatshirts

Q: with a blanket,

R: was wearing

Arranged properly:
He wrapped himself, though he was wearing two sweatshirts with a blanket.

This makes sense because it explains that despite wearing two sweatshirts, he still wrapped himself with a blanket.
