Options

  1. A. QSRP
  2. B. SPQR
  3. C. PQRS
  4. D. PQSR

Answer

D. PQSR

Step-by-step solution

Sentence S1 introduces the inauguration of the South African Constitution. Sentence P logically follows S1 as it refers to the creation and promulgation of the Constitution mentioned in S1 using the pronoun 'Its'. Sentence Q shifts the focus to a specific part of the Constitution, introducing the 'Bill of Rights'. Sentence S must follow Q as it elaborates on the 'Bill of Rights' introduced in Q, stating that it grants an extensive range of rights. Sentence R follows S by providing specific details and examples of the extensive rights mentioned in S, specifically forbidding various forms of discrimination. Finally, S6 concludes the passage by stating how these rights are enforced by a special constitutional court. Thus, the correct logical sequence is PQSR. Answer: PQSR
