    DIRECTIONS: In each of these questions, the sentences P, Q, R and S, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Choose the most logical order of the sentences from amongst the four given choices so as to form a coherent paragraph. P: Michael Hofman, a poet and translator, accepts this sorry fact without approval. Q: But thanklessness and impossibility do not daunt him. R: He acknowledges too-infact, he returns to the point often-the best translators of poetry always fail at some level. S: Hofman feels passionately about his work and this is clear from his writings. T: In terms of the gap between worth and rewards, translators come somewhere near nurses and street cleaners.

    A)          TPRSQ                       

    B) TPRQS

    C) PSTQR                       

    D) SRTPQ

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    T is the opening sentence followed by P, which introduces the second subject. Then will be R, which has the pronoun subject 'he' referring to the noun subject in P. Since P ends with a negative verb - fails, the following sentence can be positive only if proceeded by the conjunction but, so Q will followed R.
