Sentence 1- The first sentence should always introduce the subject matter of the paragraph. Sentence R introduces the subject of social media and technology serving as major distractions for students.
Sentence 2- Sentence P is a continuation of the previous subject. It explains how the young generation is addicted to these social media sites (explained in sentence R).
Sentence 3- Sentence S begins with ‘these’ which means the subject of the previous sentence is also the subject here. The context of this sentence is also similar to sentence P that is why this sentence is next in sequence.
Sentence 4- Sentence Q provides a conclusion to the discussion, by giving a measure to control the problem of excessive use of social media by the younger generation.
