    A SRQP Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B PSQR Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C RSPQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D QSPR Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here, R is the continuation of the introduction and talks about what he used to do daily. So, it is the second sentence. S follows R. P says what he was doing a particular day and Q says what happened when he did it. So the correct order is RSPQ.
