Parts of a sentence are given below in jumbled order. Select the option that gives their correct logical sequence and forms a meaningful sentence.
In November, Lakshman fell (P) / with fever (Q) / seriously ill (R) and pneumonia (S).

Question

Accepted Answer

Let's analyze the logical sequence:

The sentence starts with 'In November, Lakshman fell...'. The verb 'fell' is usually followed by an adjective or adverb describing the state, such as 'ill' or 'seriously ill'.

Let's look at the options:
- (P) 'with fever' cannot directly follow 'fell' because 'fell with fever' is not idiomatic.
- (R) 'seriously ill' is a common phrase: 'fell seriously ill'.
- (Q) 'with fever' and (S) 'and pneumonia' are additional details about the illness.

So, the correct order is:
P: 'seriously ill' (R) should come immediately after 'fell', so 'fell seriously ill'.
Then, we add the causes or conditions: 'with fever and pneumonia'.
So, the sequence is: P (fell), Q (with fever), R (seriously ill), S (and pneumonia).
But let's check the options:
Option 3: P, Q, R, S = 'fell with fever seriously ill and pneumonia' (not correct)
Option 2: P, R, Q, S = 'fell seriously ill with fever and pneumonia' (this is correct)

Wait, let's reconstruct:
- P: 'with fever'
- Q: 'seriously ill'
- R: 'and pneumonia'

But the original sentence is: 'In November, Lakshman fell (P) / with fever (Q) / seriously ill (R) and pneumonia (S).'
But the labels are:
P: fell
Q: with fever
R: seriously ill
S: and pneumonia

So, the correct sequence is: fell seriously ill with fever and pneumonia.
So, P (fell), R (seriously ill), Q (with fever), S (and pneumonia).

Option 2: P, R, Q, S

But in the options, Option 3 is marked as P, Q, R, S, but that would be 'fell with fever seriously ill and pneumonia', which is not correct.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2: P, R, Q, S.

Final answer:
Option 2 is correct.
