In the following sentence rearrangement question, the sentence "You fail to P: what someone is born, Q: recognize that it matters not R: but what they grow to be!" is jumbled. Choose the option that gives the most logical order of P, Q, and R to form a meaningful sentence.

Introduction / Context:
This question tests your ability to reorder sentence parts to create a clear and meaningful statement. The base fragment "You fail to" is followed by three labelled parts P, Q, and R. The sentence talks about what truly matters in a person, contrasting what they are born as with what they eventually become. Your task is to identify the order that produces a grammatically correct and logically flowing sentence.

Given Data / Assumptions:

- Intro fragment: "You fail to". - Part P: "what someone is born,". - Part Q: "recognize that it matters not". - Part R: "but what they grow to be!". - We must choose the correct sequence among several orders of P, Q, and R.

Concept / Approach:
The natural English pattern for such a sentence is: "You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be." The key is to identify that "You fail to" must be immediately followed by a verb phrase such as "recognize that it matters not". This verb phrase is contained in Q. After that, the object of "matters not" is the contrast between "what someone is born" (P) and "but what they grow to be" (R). Thus, the logical order of the parts is Q, then P, then R, giving QPR.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:
Test another order, for example PRQ. "You fail to what someone is born, recognize that it matters not but what they grow to be!" is clearly ungrammatical because the verb "recognize" is placed too late and the structure "fail to what" is incorrect. Similarly, QRP gives "You fail to recognize that it matters not but what they grow to be what someone is born," which is both awkward and ungrammatical. Only QPR provides the smooth, logical contrast typical in such philosophical statements.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Option PRQ starts with a noun clause after "fail to", which is not correct because "fail to" requires a verb in base form, such as "recognize". Option RPQ begins "You fail to but what they grow to be", which is ungrammatical. Option QRP puts the contrast in the wrong order and leaves the phrase "what someone is born" hanging at the end, which sounds unnatural. Option PQR produces "You fail to what someone is born, recognize that it matters not but what they grow to be!" which again has flawed grammar. None of these match the clear pattern of a main clause plus contrasted objects of "matters not".

Common Pitfalls:
Students may try to force the order based on the appearance of the word "but", placing it earlier, or may not recognise that "recognize" must directly follow "fail to". A reliable technique is to identify the clause that can immediately follow "to" (a base form verb), and then check where the contrast words like "but" and "what" logically belong. Paying attention to verb patterns like "fail to recognize that" will quickly guide you to the correct sequence.

Final Answer:
The most logical and grammatically correct order is QPR, giving the sentence "You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be!"
