Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the…

Correct sequence: P Q R S

• Sentence P introduces the place (the Boudhanath stupa), so it is the natural opening sentence.

• Sentence Q uses the pronoun "Its" to describe the stupa's dome; that pronoun needs the stupa introduced first, so Q follows P.

• Sentence R continues with a related detail: small shops standing on the dome's outer edge, so R comes after Q.

• Sentence S says "Many of these," which clearly refers to the shops mentioned in R and adds that many are owned by Tibetan immigrants, so S is last.

Putting these together gives a coherent paragraph: P (introduce place) → Q (describe the dome) → R (describe shops on the outer edge) → S (give more information about those shops).

Tip: Use pronouns and referring phrases to find their antecedents; sentences that introduce nouns usually come before sentences that use pronouns referring to them.
