Key Points  

• While arranging the parts of the passage given in the options, we have to find some grammatical or contextual connections between them, so let’s find out.  
  • The first statement in the sequence should be the one that best connects with S1.
  • It should be a continuation or extension of S1.
  • From S1 and S6, it is clear that the passage is about an experience that the speaker witnessed.
  • P follows S1 because it is adding information to the context by saying that the house was on fire.
  • S follows P because it is adding more information to Q by saying that I immediately rushed out.
  • Q is directly connected to S6 as Q is talking about the regulation of the crowd.
• Therefore, the sequence is 'S1PSRQS6.'
