52. Arrange the jumbled words or phrases to make a meaningful sentence or a part of the sentence.
P. but he
Q. was, in
R. foolish person
S. fact, a
A. RSPQ
B. SPQR
C. PQSR
D. QRSP


The correct answer is C PQSR
We need to find the grammatical or contextual connections between the parts to find the correct sequence
Part P contains ‘he’.
This part should be placed first to get a meaningful sentence.
Part Q starts with a helping verb.
It will be put in second place.
The last word of the part Q is ‘in’. The first part of the part S is ‘fact’
Both join together to make ‘in fact’.
So S will be put in third place.
Part R will be put in fourth place to make the sentence meaningful and complete.
Thus the complete sequence is PQSR.
  1. Arrange the jumbled words or phrases to make a meaningful sentence or a part of the sentence.
    Religion has been used —
    P. both as a weapon of isolation
    Q. to dull awareness
    R. about real problems like health and education etc.
    S. and as Morphia
    A. PSQR
    B. RPQS
    C. PQRS
    D. QPSR

The correct answer is A “PSQR”.
Since the introductory part is already there, P will be the 1st statement as it tells us how religion is used and takes the story forward.
As the statement P contains the 1st purpose of the religion and the conjunction ‘both’, we need a statement which contains the 2nd purpose of religion and the
connector ‘and’, as ‘both-and’ are used together.
As we can see there is only one option with P as the 1st statement and S as the 2nd statement i.e 1st option.
Hence the correct order will be: P-S-Q-R.
  1. Direction: Put the jumbled words in the correct order to form a meaningful sentence.
    timely / your / am / help / I / for / thankful / really
    A. I am really thankful for your timely help.
    B. Your timely help I am thankful for really.
    C. Your help I am timely thankful for really.
    D. For your timely help I am really thankful

The correct answer is option A) i.e. I am really thankful for your timely help.
‘I’ is the subject, So it will be taken first of all.
I take helping verb ‘am’.
‘Thankful’ is the noun. It will be placed after helping verb.
‘Really’ is adjective. So it will be placed before ‘noun’.
Thankful carries preposition for. So it will be put just after thankful.
‘Your timely help’ is the object. It will be taken in the last.
Thus the correct sentence is: I am really thankful for your timely help.
