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 :Helen graduated in 1904with special honours in English.
S6:Here dress was torn and roses were snatched from her hat.
P:She was twenty-four years old.
Q:She was invited to the St. Louis Exposition in 1904 to awaken worldwide interest in the education of the deaf-blind.
R:But on Helen Keller Day the crowds got out of hand.
S:Requests were already flowing in for appearances and for magazine articles.

The proper sequence should be 

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

Explanation:

The starting statement talked about Helen and her graduation. So, the continuing statement would be talking about the age of Helen when she completed her honours. So, P would be the succeeding statement. So, P being the first statement eliminates all other options. Thus, the correct sequence is PSQR.
