Explanation:

PQSR, P becomes the first sentence because it describes how fire was discovered shedding light on the idea mentioned in S1. From discovery the idea shifted towards a comparison of making fire now and then. The idea of present use begins in Q indicated by ‘now’, saying how easy it is for us to make fire now. S follows indication that matches are very recent and the situation was completely different in the past. R describes the olden times, hence becomes the last sentence.
