Para Jumbled Sentences : Directions: In the following question, the first and the last parts of the sentence are numbered S₁ and S₆. The rest of the sentence is split into four parts named P, Q, R, and S. These four parts are not given in proper order. Read the sentence carefully and choose the correct order from the given options. S₁: It is far better to live for a short while P. contribution to the world Q. and make some significant R. that is just idled away S. than spend a long life S₆: in gossiping and playing.

The correct sequence is Q–P–S–R because the sentence begins with the idea that it is better to live a short life with purpose. Part Q, “and make some significant,” directly continues the opening clause, and P, “contribution to the world,” completes this thought by specifying what is being made. After establishing the value of a purposeful short life, part S, “than spend a long life,” introduces the contrast, which is then qualified by R, “that is just idled away,” leading smoothly into the final clause in S₆, “in gossiping and playing.” This order maintains logical flow and balances the positive aspect of a short meaningful life against the negative aspect of a long wasted one.
