He told us that P : and enjoy it immensely Q : in a prose translation R : he had read Milton S : which he had borrowed from his teacher The Proper sequence should be:
-
RSQP
-
QRPS
-
RQSP
-
RQPS
RQSP forms: 'He told us that he had read Milton in a prose translation which he had borrowed from his teacher and enjoy it immensely.' This follows natural storytelling - what was read (R), how/in what form (Q), source of the book (S), and the reaction (P).
To answer this question, we need to determine the proper sequence of the given statements: P, Q, R, and S.
Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) RSQP:
- R: he had read Milton
- S: which he had borrowed from his teacher
- Q: in a prose translation
- P: and enjoy it immensely
This option is incorrect because it does not follow the logical sequence of the statements.
Option B) QRPS:
- Q: in a prose translation
- R: he had read Milton
- P: and enjoy it immensely
- S: which he had borrowed from his teacher
This option is incorrect because it does not follow the logical sequence of the statements.
Option C) RQSP:
- R: he had read Milton
- Q: in a prose translation
- S: which he had borrowed from his teacher
- P: and enjoy it immensely
This option is correct because it follows the logical sequence of the statements. The person first read Milton, then in a prose translation, borrowed from his teacher, and finally enjoyed it immensely.
Option D) RQPS:
- R: he had read Milton
- Q: in a prose translation
- P: and enjoy it immensely
- S: which he had borrowed from his teacher
This option is incorrect because it does not follow the logical sequence of the statements.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) RQSP. This option is correct because it follows the logical sequence of the given statements.
