Explanation:

The introductory sentence is, ‘Egypt lies in the north-east corner of Africa’ & the concluding sentence is, ‘The whole country depends on the water of Nile’. If we look at the last sentence, clearly the second last sentence would be related to the condition of water in the area, hence the second last sentence would be ‘Q’. This narrows down to options to ‘2’ & ’3’. Also, logically, sentence ‘P’ should be followed by sentence ‘Q’, since ‘S’ is basically an effect of ‘P’. Thus, the correct sequence will be S1, R, P, S, Q, S6.
Hence, option ‘3’ is correct.
