Q:

There is no reason (that life may exist) P (in great profusion) Q (why we should not be willing to think) R (in other worlds) S

The correct sequence should be

A) R S P Q B) P Q S R
C) R P Q S D) R Q S P
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) R P Q S

Explanation:

Since, the sentence starts talking about the reason; R will be the continuing statement as it goes with the flow of the statement. The continuing statement talks about the existing of life i.e. P. Thus, all other options are eliminated. The correct formation would be, ‘There is no reason why we should not be willing to think that life may exist in great profusion in other worlds.’

Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

I am waiting for three-quarters of an hour.

A) I am waiting since B) I have waited since
C) I have been waiting for D) No improvement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) I have been waiting for

Explanation:

If some action has started in the past and is still continuing, then present perfect continuous tense should be used instead of present continuous tense. So, the phrase ‘am waiting’ needs to be replaced with ‘have been waiting’ to make the sentence contextually correct. Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘I have been waiting for three –quarters of an hour’.
