Question

Enter the correct sequence excluding S1 and S2 in the blank provided.

S1: The study of speech disorders due to brain injury suggests that patients can think without having adequate control over their language.

P : But they succeed in playing games of chess.
Q : Some patients, for example fail to find the names of objects presented to them.
R : They can even use the concepts needed for chess playing, though they are unable to express many of the concepts in ordinary language.
S : They even find it difficult to interpret long written notices.

S6: How they manage to do this we do not know.

___

Answer 1

Sentence Q best follows sentence S1 as it talks about a difficulty experienced by patients who have lost control over speech processing. Sentence S follows sentence Q and gives one more example of the difficulties of patients. Sentences PR have a common thread of chess between them and sentence P follows S as it gives an example of how patients who have lost their speech processing powers are still able to use their thinking powers.

So, the correct sequence is QSPR.
