Concept: Use pointer words ('these', 'As a result') to chain sentences.
- Q introduces the farmers and raised beds → opener.
- R says 'these raised beds' → must come after Q.
- P 'As a result … harvest' follows R's fertile land; S sums up prosperity → Q R P S.
Trick: 'These/this/such' refers back; 'As a result' needs a cause just before it.
Answer: (A) Q, R, P, S
अवधारणा: 'these', 'As a result' जैसे संकेत शब्दों से वाक्य जोड़ें।
- Q किसानों और raised beds का परिचय देता है → पहला वाक्य।
- R में 'these raised beds' → Q के बाद।
- P 'As a result' R के उपजाऊ ज़मीन के बाद; S निष्कर्ष → Q R P S।
ट्रिक: 'these/this' पिछली बात की ओर इशारा करते हैं; 'As a result' से पहले कारण होना चाहिए।
उत्तर: (A) Q, R, P, S
