Question:
Rearrange the following clauses to form a well-structured and grammatically correct sentence. Choose the MOST LOGICAL order from the options:
(P) for its environmental impact.
(Q) A recent study
(R) has highlighted the significant concerns
(S) surrounding the fashion industry's reliance on fast fashion.
The most logical order is PSQR. Here's the reasoning:
- Sentence Introduction: A well-structured sentence typically starts with a subject (noun or pronoun). In this case, "A recent study" (Q) introduces the topic.
- Subject and Following Information: The subject "study" suggests it performs an action or has something said about it. "Has highlighted" (R) connects logically to "study" as the verb.
- Focus of the Criticism: The highlighted concerns (R) need further explanation. "The significant concerns" (P) provide that explanation.
- Target of the Concerns: Finally, the concerns must be about something specific. "Surrounding the fashion industry's reliance on fast fashion" (S) completes the sentence by clarifying what the highlighted concerns are about.
Therefore, PSQR offers the most logical and grammatically correct flow of information.
