Logically and contextually Q is independent of the rest sentences and so Q is the First sentence in the sequence.
Out of the rest sentences, Q is followed by S and P subsequently with reference to the context.
Therefore S and P are respectively the Second and third sentences in the sequence.
Out of R and T, R definitely follows P and hence P is the fourth sentence.
Undoubtedly, R becomes the Fifth sentence in the sequence.
Therefore, the correct option is QSPRT.
Correct sequence:
- Q) Last night we were at the hostel when almost every boarder heard a monstrous sound.
- S) But nobody went out as it was torrentially downpouring outside and also there was no power in the hostel premises.
- P) On the next morning they found out that the transformer at the nearby substation had exploded with a horrific sound which they had heard in the night before.
- R) However, there was no casualty and the fire fighting group had handled the situation in an adept manner.
- T) Two days later, power was restored in the hostel upon installation of the new transformer and other accessories.
