C Correct answer
Explanation

This is the correct option. S1 introduces the topic of the passage ‘era of communication’. This is followed by P (details about the various types of communications in this era). This connects with R (‘cell phones, email’ in P connects with ‘transfer through cell phones and email’ in R). This connects with Q (more about how ‘cell phones and email’ in Q connects with the mention in R). This is followed by S (‘chatting can get you in touch instantly’ in S connects logically with S6 ‘communication is easier’).
