Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To rearrange the given parts into a meaningful sentence, analyze the context and logical flow of the sentence fragments:

1. Identify the subject and action: The subject involves watching a movie, which is best captured by part 'Q: we were watching a movie.' This suggests the sequence begins with 'Q'.
2. Find the sequence of events: After establishing the initial context 'Q', determine what happens next. 'P: when the electricity went out' logically follows as it interrupts the initial action, providing a transition point for the sentence.
3. Complete the scenario: Following 'P' with 'R: and had to finish it the next day' makes sense as a consequence of the power outage. This part logically follows because it indicates what had to be done due to the interruption.
4. Add the location or setting: Finally, 'S: at my friend's house' gives additional information, describing where the events occurred, thus completing the sentence.

Concatenate the parts to form the sentence: "We were watching a movie when the electricity went out and had to finish it the next day at my friend's house." Therefore, the correct sequence is 'QPRS'.
