‘R’ will be the first part of the given sequence as it is referring ‘fears’ mentioned in the opening phrase S1. SQ will make a pair together as ‘S’ talks about the fear of crossing the street and ‘Q’ talks of the time duration of crossing the street, that is, when the automobile is out of the way. ‘P’ will follow next as ‘this’ is use in the context of ‘need some rears to keep foolish things away’. Hence, RSQP is the correct sequence. Thus, option (b) is correct.
