R: No blueprint can give us a pre-planned design to organise our lives with other people.

S: Each one of us is sensitive; and each one of us is constantly variable – our mood and temperament change from day to day, may be even from hour to hour yet we have evolved into a society and community; a global habitat with families, institutions and corporations.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. QPRS.

1. S gives reason for the arguments given in P and R. So, S will come after both of them.

2. S also gives the conclusion that people have learnt to live together. So, it will be the last sentence.

3. Only option 1 contains PRS together.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
