Correct Answer PQRS

First Sentence-Out of all the sentence only sentence P serves as an introduction to the topic of the paragraph that clearly happens to be superstitions. All the sentences explain or describe the superstitions but only sentence P clearly introduces the topic.

Second Sentence- Sentence Q is second in sequence. It begins with 'this' which means that it is a continuation of a certain topic or sentence and also that the subject of the previous sentence is also the subject in this sentence. Since the last sentence explained what superstitions are, this sentence continues that explanation.

Third Sentence-Sentence R.The context of the sentence is that superstition exists throughout the world in different forms. Since the previous sentences explained what a superstition is, this sentence provides us with new information about the same topic.

Fourth Sentence-The last sentence should always serve as a conclusion to the paragraph that is why sentence S is last in the sequence. It begins with the word 'Nor' which means it is a continuation of the previous sentence.

The correct answer is option 1 ie. PQRS.
