A) P Q R S B) Q R S P

R will be the next statement as it connects Q by stating that they agreed for a cease fire. The next statement would be talking about the reason of the cease fire, therefore, P follows and S would be the concluding statement which makes a coherent paragraph. The correct formation would be, ‘Georgian loyalists and rebel forces agreed to a ceasefire today after a week of fighting in which 51 people were killed’.
