In this section, each item consists of six sentences of passage. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning as SI and S6. The middle four-sentence in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences. S1: We do not know, after 60 years of education, how to protect ourselves against epidemics like cholera and plague. S6: This is the disastrous result of the system under which we are educated. P: If our doctors could have started learning medicine at an earlier age, they would not make such a poor show as they do. Q: I have seen hundreds of homes. I cannot say that I have found any evidence in them of knowledge of hygiene. R: I consider it a very serious blot on the state of our education that our doctors have not found it possible to eradicate these diseases. S: I also have the greatest doubt whether our graduates know what one should do in case one is bitten by a snake.

The correct answer is option 3) i.e. RPQS.
- The passage is about the drawbacks of the education system.
- R should come after S1 as it says how the diseases mentioned in S1 still have no cure. P is next as it further talks about the doctors. Next is Q, followed by S as both of them are about how people lack knowledge in the most basic of things.
- Hence, the correct order of sentences in the passage will be S1RPQSS6.
