The question below consists of a set of labelled sentences. These sentences, when properly sequenced form a coherent paragraph. Select the most logical order of sentences from among the options.

P: If we manage our time effectively we can accomplish all the activities and tasks we wish to.

Q: It is important that we draw up a time table that we can adopt practically.

R: If we can stick to the time table we can then succeed in achieving our goals whether they are in the short term or long term.

S: This requires drawing up a practicable time table.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. PSQR.

  1. According to the options, the paragraph does not start with R as none of the options start with R.
  2. The paragraph also does not start with S as it starts with 'this'. This 'this' must be referring to some noun.
  3. P must follow S as P talks about managing time and S talks about drawing a time table. And the management of time is a time table.
  4. Option 2 fulfils the above condition and makes a coherent paragraph.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
