Direction: Arrange these parts so as to form a complete meaningful…

In a Sentence Rearrangement (Para Jumbles) question, the paragraph is rebuilt by first finding the opening sentence — a general statement that introduces the topic without a pronoun, conjunction, or reference that depends on an earlier line — and then locking any parts joined by connectors (such as 'and', 'so', 'but') into fixed pairs, since a connector-led part cannot open a new sentence and must immediately follow its partner.

1. S is the only sentence that introduces the topic in general terms ("The threats to the newly independent nations are varied") without depending on anything earlier, so S must open the paragraph.

2. P ("There is social conservation and revivalism") lists the first specific threat right after the general statement in S.

3. U begins with the connector "And," so it must directly continue the sentence before it; U ("And there are economic and social pressures") extends the list of threats started by P, giving the pair P-U.

4. R ("Above all, there is stark poverty and hunger") uses "above all" to mark the most severe threat, capping the list of threats after P-U.

5. Q ("So advanced nations should help") uses "So" to draw the logical conclusion from the threats just listed, moving from problem to solution.

6. T begins with the connector "and," so it must directly continue the sentence before it; T ("and we should try to become self-reliant") completes Q's sentence, giving the pair Q-T.

Reading S-P-U-R-Q-T end to end: "The threats to the newly independent nations are varied. There is social conservation and revivalism. And there are economic and social pressures. Above all, there is stark poverty and hunger. So advanced nations should help and we should try to become self-reliant." This reads as one coherent paragraph moving from a general statement, to a growing list of threats, to a concluding call for help and self-reliance, with every connector-part immediately following its pair.

• The order beginning with R breaks down immediately, because "Above all, there is stark poverty and hunger" needs an earlier list of threats to cap — it cannot open the paragraph.

• The order that places R right after S and then moves to T splits the Q-T pair by inserting other parts between "So advanced nations should help" and its continuation "and we should try to become self-reliant," and also separates P and U from each other.

• The order beginning with T fails on the same ground as R: a part opening with the connector "and" cannot start a paragraph, since it has no preceding clause to attach to.

Hence, the correct order is S-P-U-R-Q-T (SPURQT).
