Correct Answer PRQS

The correct answer is ‘PRQS’.

Key Points

  • While arranging the parts of the passage, we should find some grammatical or contextual connections between them-
    • P follows sentence 1 as ‘they’ refers to the 'whales' mentioned in sentence 1.
    • Next is R as it states that researchers dissected one of the dead whales to know the reason behind its death.
    • After that is Q as it starts with 'fin whale' which logically continues the previous sentence.
    • Last is S as it describes the average rate of deaths of fin whales followed by S6 which refers to the most recent death of a fin whale.

Thus, the correct order is PRQS:

1. Marine biologists are investigating the deaths of at least six fin whales found washed up on France's western shores.

P. They have no apparent sign of having been hit up by a ship or caught in a trawler's net.

R. So, researchers on Monday, used a mechanical digger and long knives to dissect one of the fin whales.

Q. Fin whale is the second-largest species of whale after the blue whale. 

S. In an average year, between three and, at most, 10 fin whales are deposited dead on France's beaches.

6. The most recent fin whale corpse was found on Friday near Saint-Hilaire-de-Riez.

S. But now it says only two-thirds will be paid on time. 6. But as they later found out, the cruise itself and the hotel accommodation had been booked through Thomas Cook.

P. Again, the shark quickly attacked.  This time, however, the shark slammed into the fibreglass divider and bounced off. Q. As you would expect, the shark quickly swam around the tank, attacked and ate the smaller fish. R. The marine biologist then inserted a strong piece of clear fibreglass into the tank, creating two separate partitions.She then put the shark on one side of the fibreglass and a new set of bait fish on the other. S. Eventually, about an hour into the experiment, the shark gave up. 6. The marine biologist then removed the fibreglass divider, but the shark didn’t attack.  The shark was trained to believe a barrier existed.

Straight As may be the wrong goal, suggests a new study that has determined learning is optimized when we fail 15% of the time. P. This is a concept that society has intuited for a long time, across a variety of domains — for instance, this just-outside-one’s-grasp learning is observable in video games, in which the player is encouraged or forced to a higher level of difficulty once a performance criterion has been achieved.  Q. In both cases, machines and animals learned the fastest when difficulty was such that the subject would be right 85% of the time and be wrong 15%. But researchers say their finding is likely applicable to humans.  R. Interestingly, it’s not a new concept — the “zone of proximal development,” a theory developed in the 1930s by psychologist Lev Vygotsky described the sweet spot of learning: when a student is faced with a challenge just beyond their ability to solve it alone. It’s a ‘Goldilock’s zone'. S. A ratio, developed by researchers at various universities was tested on computers via machine learning and applied to previous research looking into how animals learn.  6. If one is taking classes that are too easy and acing them all the time, then one probably isn’t getting as much out of a class as someone who’s struggling but managing to keep up.

Anyone who has had a scary dream has wondered what is the purpose of such dreams. P. A new study may be able to shed light on that, concluding that scary dreams prepare us to deal with real-life threats.  Q. It was found that the longer  someone had felt fear in their dreams, the less the insula, cingulate and amygdala [the brain region that flips on the fight-or-flight response] were activated when the same person looked at the negative pictures. R. Researchers caution that not all scary dreams are created equal, however, nightmares — dreams characterized by extreme levels of fear — often disrupt sleep and linger with an individual long after they wake. S. Their future work will examine nightmares more closely; they suspect they will not find the same benefits from them as from mildly scary dreams. 6. “We believe that if a certain threshold of fear is exceeded in a dream, it loses its beneficial role as an emotional regulator,” Dr Perogamvros said.

It is widely known that the use of social media affects mental health, but a new, three-year study has found that it is the lack of sleep from its use and the psychological distress caused by cyberbullying via the platforms that are the main reasons affecting one’s state of mind, more than use of the actual apps. P. Girls who were checking social media also reported to be less happy and more anxious; however, boys didn’t report the same feelings. Q. In girls, the researchers said, the negative effects were due to disrupted sleep, cyberbullying and to some extent, lack of exercise. R. Researchers found that girls and boys who checked social media sites more than thrice a day had poorer mental health and greater psychological distress. S. In boys, the same three factors — disrupted sleep, cyberbullying, lack of exercise — had an effect too, but it was much smaller. 6. Dr Dasha Nicholls, from Imperial College London, who was also involved in the study added, “It’s not the amount of social media, per se, it’s when it displaces real-life contact and activities. It’s about getting a balance.”

In the sciences, even fraud cases of research extortion are brutally punished. P. Be that as it may, no such system exists in the humanities-a lot of what humanities analysts call inquire about does not prompt outcomes that are copied by different researchers. Q. Given the significance of understanding in recorded and artistic grant, humanities scientists are in a position where they can clarify away ponder and even efficient bending. R. Mere suspicion is sufficient for financing to be cut off, reputation ensures that vocations can be successfully finished. S. Fabrications which appear as pastiches in which the forger blends phony and genuine parts can be guarded as minor oversights or a typical misreading. 6. Researchers fudging information have no such protections.

However, the problem hasn’t been solved completely because the implementation of these measures hasn’t been as successful. S. It has become very essential to ban plastic bags before they ruin our planet completely. S6. Research shows that waste plastic bags have been a major reason for untimely animal deaths.
