    A RPQS Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B PQRS Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C SPRQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D QPSR Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    After 1, R is the correct word. After that, P comes. The other two statements follow this statement. The next statement after P is S. He saw fruits, and wanted some, but didn’t want to climb the tree. So, he found out a way, ie, to lie down underneath the tree. And finally comes statement 6. So, the correct sequence is RPSQ.
