The correct answer is: D. SRPQ
The first sentence (S1) introduces the topic of the passage, which is the ability of patients with brain injuries to think without having adequate control over their language. The second sentence (P) provides an example of this ability, by describing how some patients with brain injuries are able to play games of chess even though they have difficulty finding the names of objects. The third sentence (R) further supports this example by explaining that these patients can use the concepts needed for chess playing, even though they are unable to express many of the concepts in ordinary language. The fourth sentence (S) provides another example of this ability, by describing how some patients with brain injuries find it difficult to interpret long written notices. The fifth sentence (S6) concludes the passage by stating that the authors do not know how these patients manage to think without having adequate control over their language.
The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the logical flow of the passage. Option A (PSQR) puts the example of chess playing before the explanation of how these patients are able to do it. Option B (RQSP) puts the conclusion before the evidence that supports it. Option C (QSPR) puts the evidence that supports the conclusion before the conclusion itself.
