  1. A. PRQS
  2. B. PQRS
  3. C. QPSR
  4. D. SPRQ

Answer

C. QPSR

Step-by-step solution

The sentence must begin with the subject. Part Q introduces the subject 'many of the people who had come to'. The preposition 'to' at the end of Q must be followed by a verb. Part P provides this verb phrase: 'participate in the function'. This gives the meaningful fragment 'many of the people who had come to participate in the function'. This subject requires a main verb, which is provided by part S: 'could not find a seat because'. Finally, part R provides the reason completing the sentence: 'the auditorium was over-crowded'. The complete, grammatically correct sentence is: 'Many of the people who had come to participate in the function could not find a seat because the auditorium was over-crowded.' The correct sequence is QPSR. Answer: QPSR
