Options

  1. A. S Q R P
  2. B. S P Q R
  3. C. R S P Q
  4. D. S R Q P

Answer

D. S R Q P

Step-by-step solution

The sentence begins with the conditional clause in S ('when service is done for'). The preposition 'for' at the end of S requires an object, which is given in R ('exhibition or for fear of public opinion'). Thus, S is followed by R. This conditional clause is followed by the main clause starting with the subject 'it' in Q ('it stunts the person offering the same and'). The conjunction 'and' at the end of Q links two actions, connecting it to P ('crushes the spirit behind the service'). The complete and meaningful sentence is: 'When service is done for exhibition or for fear of public opinion, it stunts the person offering the same and crushes the spirit behind the service.' The correct sequence is SRQP.
