Question

Rearrange the four parts to form a meaningful and coherent sentence:
P: volunteered to park his
Q: a shop owner
R: warn motorists off the hole
S: advertisement board to

• A. QRSP
• B. QSPR
• C. QRPS
• D. QPSR

Hint:

When rearranging, look for "hanging" words. Fragment P ends in 'his', which needs a noun (S: board). Fragment S ends in 'to', which needs a verb (R: warn).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Concept: Sentence rearrangement requires identifying the logical flow of Subject + Verb + Object + Purpose/Modifier. We must find the starting point (the subject) and then link the actions to the intended goals.

Step 1: Finding the Subject and Main Verb.
Looking at the fragments:
• Q (a shop owner) is the only logical noun to act as the subject.
• P (volunteered to park his) contains the main verb "volunteered" and the start of an object "his...". So the beginning is Q followed by P. ("A shop owner volunteered to park his...")

Step 2: Connecting the Object.
What did the shop owner park? Fragment S (advertisement board to) provides the object that fits "his." So far: Q + P + S ("A shop owner volunteered to park his advertisement board to...")

Step 3: Completing the Purpose.
Why did he park the board? Fragment R (warn motorists off the hole) provides the infinitive purpose that follows the "to" in fragment S. Final sequence: Q + P + S + R. Final Answer: Option D
