Correct Answer RQPS

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. RQPS.

  •  While arranging the parts of the sentence given in options, we have to find some grammatical or contextual connections between them-
    • R follows sentence 1 as it starts with 'not only due to' which highlights the reason why sadness is difficult to deal with.
    • Next is Q as it tells what can be the causes of sadness.
    • P follows Q as it further describes the emotion and what one should keep in mind.
    • Last is S as states one slightly positive feature of sadness.
