As the first sentence S1 is given to us, we can see that is talks about the geographical location of Egypt and the last sentence S6 talks about the country’s source of water which is the Nile, we have to arrange the remaining sentences in a way that they convey the other given information in a systematic manner.

The first sentence: should be R which tells us about the size of Egypt following the information regarding geographical location provided in S1.

The second sentence: should be P which tells us about the portion of the desert in the country.

The third sentence: should be S which tells about the amount of cultivable land available in Egypt.

The fourth sentence: it has to be Q only so that it leads us to the information which is provided in the last sentence S6 regarding water resources. Thus, it’s Q which tells us that Egypt receives very little rainfall.
