Question

The essay (P) like that of the human face (Q) because its variety is infinite (R) is a literary form (S) which is not easy to define
The proper sequence should be

• A. P Q R S
• B. P Q S R
• C. R S Q P
• D. R S P Q

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

R S Q P

R follows the subject "the essay" as it gives introductory information "is a literary form" about an essay.
S follows R as the relative pronoun "which is ..." adds extra information about the literary form.
Q follows S as the words are linked. The conjunction 'because' refers to reason "its variety is infinite" behind why "(the essay) is not easy to define"
P follows Q as the words "like that of the human face" are linked with "its variety is infinite". The former forms a comparison of the latter with a human face.
Hence the correct sequence is RSQP and option C is correct.
Options A, B and D are incorrect as they do not form a logical sequence.
