While arranging the parts of the sentence given in options, we have to find some grammatical or contextual connections between them, so let’s find out- Sentence 1 gives the introduction of the subject and describes the situation. It is followed by R as all other sentences are replies of a particular question. Next is P as it gives the reply to the question asked in R. S follows P as he continued after the reply. The most suitable answer to the question in S is Q. Sentences after rearrangement- One evening he lit a large lamp in the bedroom and sat near his wife. 'Shall I read you something?', he asked. 'Why not?', was the answer. 'What shall I read?', he continued. 'Whatever you like.' He was somewhat taken aback by her answer.
