D Correct answer
Explanation

This is the correct option. S1 introduces the topic of the passage (education). This connects with S (the definition of education). This connects with Q (the importance of education). Q further connects with R (the choice of field of education when one grows up). This connects directly with P (the value of good education in an individual). This connect directly with S2 as the pronoun ‘it’ in S1 refers to the noun ‘good education’ in P.
