Q: Only a small number of these young people really believe they will succeed.

R: But majority of these young people simply don't have the belief that they can reach the top.

S: Each of them "wishes", someday he will achieve success by reaching the top.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

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

1. S and R cannot be the first sentence as S contains 'them' and R starts with 'but'. 'Them' in S must have been discussed earlier and a sentence cannot start with 'but' because 'but' shows contradiction to a previous statement.

2. According to the options, a sentence cannot start with Q and therefore the sentence will start with P.

3. Only option 2 starts with P.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
