Q:

What is the best way to prevent pest infestation?

Answer

Pest infestation is nothing but the presence of large number of pests at a place, typically so as to cause damage or disease.


 


Climatic conditions affect a considerable number of pests. Some are more active during warmer periods than others. As these summer insects invade your home, they're likely in search of food, water, shelter, or have encountered an entrance. To pest-proof your home this summer, it's best to remove their 'WHY’ or reason for entering your home.


* Keep your place clean and dry. Make sure there is no food laying about.


* Removing food residue - food is a common attraction to a number of different pests.


* Regular disinfection of the surfaces.

Q:

The leader of the opposition, (in the manner he had planned to convince them,on) P (realising that he had failed to convince the) Q (assembly,who had a reputation for speech) R (making,was very much disappointed) S

The correct sequence should be

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

Explanation:

Since, the sentence starts talking about the leader of the opposition, the connecting statement will be R as it carries a relative pronoun ‘who’ which relates the sentences. S follows as it states the disappointment of the leader and the next statement talked about the reason of disappointment. P would be the concluding statement as it goes with the flow describing how the leader decided to convince the assembly and thus makes a coherent paragraph.

The correct formation would be, ‘The leader of the opposition who had a reputation for speech making was very much disappointed on realising that he had failed to convince the assembly in the manner he had planned to convince them’.
