Correct Answer RSQP
Correct option - 4
Firstly, a passage does not start with contradictory adverb "however", because there should be some statement before it to contradict that statement. Hence, options 1 & 3 are eliminated. Now, in option 2, PS both start with 'however' which is grammatically incorrect. Thus, option 4 i.e. RSQP is the correct answer.
