The correct answer is option 3 i.e. SRQP.
While arranging the parts of the sentence given in options, we have to find some grammatical or contextual connections between them, so let’s find out-
- Sentence 1 describes where Peter went to live. S follows sentence 1 as it uses 'there' which refers to the village mentioned in sentence 1.
- R follows S as it tells what happens one day.
- Next is Q as it starts with 'so' which means it gives the conclusion i.e. what happened after his neighbour told him to buy a donkey.
- Last is P as it starts with 'but' and gives a contradictory statement to Q.
Sentences after rearrangement-
