the transportation system so that it (P) and not just the affluent section of society (Q) provides mobility to everyone (R) there are many ways to restructure (S) The correct sequence should be:
- (a)PQRS
- (b)RQPS
- (c)SPRQ
- (d)QRPS
Correct — C, SPRQ. S introduces the main clause ('there are many ways to restructure'), P names its object ('the transportation system so that it'), R gives the purpose ('provides mobility to everyone'), and Q completes the contrast ('and not just the affluent section of society'). Read in order SPRQ it becomes 'There are many ways to restructure the transportation system so that it provides mobility to everyone and not just the affluent section of society.'
- (a)PQRS — Opening with P ('the transportation system so that it') gives no main verb first, leaving a dangling clause.
- (b)RQPS — 'Provides mobility to everyone' cannot lead the sentence; it depends on 'so that it' in P, which must come earlier.
- (d)QRPS — Starting with the contrast 'and not just...' is impossible — a sentence cannot begin with a trailing 'and' clause.
