Correct Answer: QRSP  

The opening line must give us an insight into the paragraph. Sentence Q does exactly that and does not refer to any previously mentioned term or phrase. Thus, it must be the first sentence and that is Sentence Q.

R carries forward the idea of Q and refers to the nation’s growth which has already been mentioned in Q. Therefore, R must be the second sentence.

Sentence S names the different sectors in reference to the phrase ‘different sectors of national growth’ used in sentence R. So, S logically forms the third sentence.

The concluding sentence is P as it sums up the gist of the entire paragraph in a sentence.
