R: They got into the house with a lot of fear. S: When they reached home they found the front door open. The correct sequence should be Correct Answer S P R Q
From the given set of sentences, we can infer that we are talking about a crime scene and therefore we have to rearrange the sentences to depict the sequence of events.
S1 tells us that the couple reached home late at night and the first thing they would have done is open the main door. Thus, sentence S will follow which tells us how they found the front door open.
The following sentence should express a tone of shock and confusion, thus, sentence P which informs that the couple immediately thought that somebody has broken the lock.
The fear of this shock might have followed them while entering the house, thus, sentence R where they try to enter the house carefully.
Before the concluding sentence in S6 where they call the police, we can infer that they must have found the things in their house in a disturbed manner. Therefore, the last sentence in the sequence would be Q. Hence the correct option is (2).
