The correct answer is: A. PSQR<\/strong><\/p>\n The first sentence, S1, introduces the topic of the passage, which is the nature of science.

The fourth sentence, R, provides more information about Galileo’s discovery, specifically that he showed that a light object falls to the ground at the same rate as a heavy object. The fifth sentence, S, provides more information about the context of Galileo’s discovery, specifically that he proved his point experimentally by dropping weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

\nThis is the correct answer. The first sentence, S1, introduces the topic of the passage, which is the nature of science. The second sentence, P, provides an example of a scientific discovery, Galileo’s discovery about falling bodies. The third sentence, Q, states that this discovery did not agree with the views of most learned men of that time. The fourth sentence, R, provides more information about Galileo’s discovery, specifically that he showed that a light object falls to the ground at the same rate as a heavy object. The fifth sentence, S, provides more information about the context of Galileo’s discovery, specifically that he proved his point experimentally by dropping weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The sixth sentence, S6, is a conclusion that summarizes the main point of the passage, which is that science means finding out how things actually do happen, not laying down principles as to how they ought to happen.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\nThis option is incorrect because it puts the third sentence, Q, before the second sentence, P. The third sentence, Q, states that Galileo’s discovery about falling bodies did not agree with the views of most learned men of that time. However, the second sentence, P, provides an example of Galileo’s discovery, which is that a light object falls to the ground at the same rate as a heavy object. This means that the third sentence, Q, cannot come before the second sentence, P.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\nThis option is incorrect because it puts the fourth sentence, R, before the second sentence, P. The fourth sentence, R, provides more information about Galileo’s discovery, specifically that he showed that a light object falls to the ground at the same rate as a heavy object. However, the second sentence, P, provides an example of Galileo’s discovery, which is that a light object falls to the ground at the same rate as a heavy object. This means that the fourth sentence, R, cannot come before the second sentence, P.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
\nThis option is incorrect because it puts the fifth sentence, S, before the second sentence, P. The fifth sentence, S, provides more information about the context of Galileo’s discovery, specifically that he proved his point experimentally by dropping weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa. However, the second sentence, P, provides an example of Galileo’s discovery, which is that a light object falls to the ground at the same rate as a heavy object. This means that the fifth sentence, S, cannot come before the second sentence, P.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
