Q:I tripped at theedge and went in with a splash.
R:The minute I came up I took a breath and plunged down again.
S:I ducked down, pushed between two men and ran for the river.

The proper sequence should be

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

Explanation:

The starting statements talks about the shots. The next statement would be the reaction of the speaker after the shots. So statement S states that he ducked down and ran for river. This eliminates option (B) and (D). The next statement would be Q. The continuing statement would be P, as it describes the nature of water that he felt after a splash. R would be the concluding statement as it correctly connects with the last statement given. Thus, the correct sequence is SQPR.
