Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. RPSQ.
- According to the options, the paragraph can either start with R or P.

- RP makes a logical pair as both R and P discuss the same idea and P follows R.
- SQ also makes a logical pair as both S and Q discuss the same idea and Q follows S.
- Option 4 fulfils the above conditions.
