Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

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

1. S starts with 'they' and R with 'but', therefore they cannot be the first sentence. None of the options start with Q, so the first sentence must start with P.

2. RQ makes a logical pair as R mentions the general perception and Q mentions that action.

3. Out of the given options, only option 1 fulfils the above condition.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
