Key Points
  • To construct a grammatically correct and meaningful sentence from the jumbled parts, we need to follow a logical flow starting with the main subject.
  • Part Q is the first part as it introduces the main subject of the sentence, "The Taj Mahal," and begins its description: "The Taj Mahal is a".
    • "The Taj Mahal is a"
  • Part S follows Q as it provides the direct description of what the Taj Mahal is and when it was built: "beautiful monument built in 1631".
    • "beautiful monument built in 1631"
  • Part P comes next, identifying the builder of the monument: "by an emperor named Shah Jahan".
    • "by an emperor named Shah Jahan"
  • Part R is the concluding part, explaining the purpose or reason for the monument's construction: "in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal".
    • "in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal"
