Para-jumble (sentence arrangement): Arrange P–Q–R–S to complete the zoology paragraph about ants and their prey. S1 = "Ants eat worms, centipedes, and spiders." P = "They are usually much quicker than the ant itself." Q = "Nevertheless, these animals do not make easy game for ants." R = "Besides, they have an extraordinary number of ways of escaping." S = "They also eat larvae and insect adults such as flies, moths, and springtails." S6 = "Some jump, and some give out a pungent repellent substance." Between S1 and S6, place P–Q–R–S to explain diet first, then difficulties in hunting. Choose the correct sequence of P–Q–R–S that completes the paragraph.
