Para-jumble (ironic anecdote): Reorder the sentences to show how a doctor exploited a blind patient and how she refuted his fee. S1 = "An elderly lady suddenly became blind." S6 = "The lady said that she had not been properly cured because she could not see all his furniture." Between S1 and S6, arrange the events to highlight the twist: P = "The doctor called daily and every time he took away some of her furniture he liked." Q = "At last she was cured and the doctor demanded his fee." R = "She agreed to pay a large fee to the doctor who would cure her." S = "On being refused, the doctor wanted to know the reason." Choose the correct sequence of P–Q–R–S that completes the paragraph.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: RPQS

Explanation:


Given data

  • R sets up the fee agreement for cure.
  • P shows the doctor's daily visits and thefts.
  • Q states she was cured and the fee demanded.
  • S records the doctor's query when refused.


Concept / Approach
Promise (R) → misdeed during treatment (P) → demand (Q) → challenge (S) → punchline (S6). The logic of her witty refusal rests on the furniture theft revealed at the end.
