The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labeled P, Q, R and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

S6:Before his death in September 1882, he had been seen by over 20 million Americans.
P:After disembarkation in New York, he was taken in a procession to the place where he was to be kept.
Q:Another admirer was the famous American showman Barnum who bought it for a huge sum in February 1882.
R:Transported from his native land to London Zoo, he became a favourite of Queen Victoria.
S:He made his transatlantic voyage aboard SS Assyrian Monarch.

The proper sequence should be 

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

Explanation:

The starting statement is talking about the birth of a 3 –3 metre elephant –Jumbo. So, the connecting statement would be discussing what happened after the birth. So statement R would be the next statement as it describes that he was transported to London; So, R being the first statement eliminates all other options. Thus, the correct sequence is RQSP.
