In the following question the first and the last parts of a short biographical passage are numbered 1 and 6. The remaining parts P, Q, R and S are jumbled. The passage tells the remarkable story of Sunita Aralikar. Read the passage and choose the option that gives the correct sequence of P, Q, R and S.

Introduction / Context:
This rearrangement passage gives a brief account of Sunita Aralikar, whose story is described as incredible but true. The first sentence announces that her story is remarkable, and the last sentence describes her present identity as an author and social activist against female infanticide. The middle parts describe events from her infancy to her education. You must order P, Q, R and S correctly.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Sentence 1 states that Sunita Aralikar's story is incredible but true.
• Part Q says that her mother died when she was fifteen days old.
• Part S says that she was buried alive by her illiterate father the next day.
• Part P notes that fortunately she was pulled out of the tiny grave by her maternal grandfather.
• Part R says that her grandfather decided to educate her on his own.
• Sentence 6 states that today Sunita is an author and a well known social activist fighting against female infanticide.

Concept / Approach:
The passage must follow the chronology of her early life: loss of mother, extreme act of burial, rescue by grandfather, decision to educate her, and then her later achievements. The moral contrast between the father's act and the grandfather's support is central to the story, so these events must be in the right order.

Step-by-Step Solution:
Step 1: After sentence 1, we expect the earliest event in her life. Part Q provides this by stating that her mother died when she was just fifteen days old. Step 2: The next day's event is more shocking. Part S tells us that her illiterate father buried her alive, which shows the theme of female infanticide. Step 3: Part P then introduces the rescue: her maternal grandfather pulls her out of the tiny grave. This is the turning point that saves her life. Step 4: Part R follows naturally: the grandfather, having saved her, decides to educate her on his own. That decision leads to the future described in sentence 6.

Verification / Alternative check:
Read the sequence 1 Q S P R 6. It reads as a smooth life story: tragic death of the mother, attempted infanticide by the father, rescue by the grandfather, commitment to education, and later success as an author and activist. The narrative explains why her story is incredible yet true and why she now fights female infanticide.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
In PQRS, the rescue appears even before the burial, which makes no sense. In SRQP, events are jumbled so that we do not get a clear timeline from death to burial to rescue. In PRSQ, again the cause effect relationship between burial and rescue is broken. Only QSPR preserves the correct chronological and logical order.

Common Pitfalls:
Students sometimes focus only on emotional intensity and place the most shocking sentence first, regardless of when it occurred. Another mistake is to ignore time markers like “the next day”, which clearly tell you the order of events. Always reconstruct a life story in strict chronological order unless there is a clear flashback signal.

Final Answer:
The correct order of the parts is Q S P R, so the correct option is QSPR.
