Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives and click the button corresponding to it.

Reporters and city officials gathered at a Chicago railroad station one afternoon in 1953. The person they were meeting was the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize winner. A few minutes after the train came to a stop, a giant of a man - six feet four inches - with bushy hair and a large moustache stepped out from the train. Cameras flashed. City officials approached him with hands outstretched. Various people began telling him how honoured they were to meet him.

The man politely thanked them and then, looking over their heads, asked if he could be excused for a moment. He quickly walked through the crowd until he reached the side of an elderly black woman who was struggling with two large suitcases. He picked up the bags with a smile, escorted the woman to a bus. After helping her aboard, he wished her a safe journey. As he returned to the greeting party he apologized, "Sorry to have kept you waiting." Not many whites would have done what he did.

The man was Dr. Albert Schweitzer, the famous missionary doctor who had spent his life helping the poor in Africa. In response to Dr. Schweitzer's action, one member of the reception committee said with great admiration to the reporter standing next to him, "That's the first time I ever saw a sermon walking."

A) Nobel Prize in 1952 for Medicine B) Nobel Prize in 1952 for Peace

Q:

In the following items, each passage consists of six sentences. The first and the sixth sentence are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labeled P, Q, R and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

S1 :Why do the English travel?
S6:For here, in cosmopolitan England, one is always exposed to the danger of meeting all sorts of peculiar aliens.
P:Besides, they are taught that travel broadens the mind.
Q:They do so mainly because their neighbor does this and they have caught the bug from him.
R:Although they have now discovered the sad truth that whatever travel may do to the mind, it certainly broadens other parts of the body.
S:But, and perhaps mainly, they travel to avoid foreigners.

The proper sequence should be 

A) R S Q P B) P R S Q
C) S Q P R D) Q P R S
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Q P R S

Explanation:

The starting statement mentions why English travel. So the continuing statement would be talking about the travel. Only statement Q stated the reason of travel. So, Q being the first statement eliminates all other options. Thus, the correct sequence is QPRS.
