    Q. But also using our senses and our brains to become more aware of the things around us. 
    R. Growing up means not only getting larger,  
    S. Not only does he have a memory but he is able to think and reason.
    Solutions
    For this question we will take the help of mandatory pairs. Sentence R uses the conjunction "not only" which has to be paired with "but also" given in sentence Q. This makes sentences R and Q a mandatory pair. The only option which has RQ together is option D. Hence, it is the answer.

    P. And the prettier she became, the more her sisters hated her. 
    Q. She was compelled to eat scraps of left-overs. 
    R. As the girl grew up, she became prettier and prettier.
    S. She began to be treated worse than any other servant.
    Solutions

    Option B is the correct answer because sentence R talks about the prettiness of the girl and sentence P continues to describe that prettiness. Then S will come next as it tells us about the result of her prettiness. Sentence Q will come after S as it elaborates on the bad treatment given to the girl. So, the correct sequence is RPSQ.

    P. In the United States alone, studies have estimated that sleep deprivation is costing businesses over $100 billion each year in lost efficiency and performance.
    Q. Most adults should be aiming for eight hours per night. Children, teenagers, and older adults typically need even more.
    R. Unless you’re doing work that doesn’t require much thought, you are trading time awake at the expense of performance.
    S. According to the experts agree that 95 percent of adults need to sleep 7 to 9 hours each night to function optimally.
    Solutions
    The hazard of sleep deprivation, which is the central theme of the passage is mentioned in the Statement P, so it should be the first sentence. Sentence R then supports statement P with a valid argument. It should be followed by Sentence S as it states the facts and stats from experts which are then explained in detail in Sentence Q.
    The correct sequence is PRSQ.

    A) Michelin stars are a rating system used by the red Michelin Guide to grade restaurants on their quality.

    B) The rating system was first introduced in 1926 as a single star, with the second and third stars introduced in 1933.

    C) According to the Guide, one star signifies "a very good restaurant", two stars are "excellent cooking that is worth a detour", and three stars mean "exceptional cuisine that is worth a special journey".

    D) The guide was originally developed in 1900 to show French drivers where local amenities such as restaurants and mechanics were.

    Solutions

    The dates in the sentences are the hints here. 1900 in D should come before B as it has 1926. Also, A introduces the subject of the sequence so it should come first. All these conditions are only fulfilled in C. Hence option C is correct.

    R: Some rules are formulated for specific types of users, while some are common.

    S: Rule like “keep left” is meant to give pass to vehicles coming from opposite direction.

    Solutions

    P is our introductory sentence as it introduces us to the topic -traffic rules and regulations. S and Q talk about the "same rule", so they should come together. However, Q uses “also” in it so it should come after S. Only option D fulfills all these conditions. Hence option D is correct.
