Explanation:
- Let's break down the sentence fragments:
- (P) "living in Russia"
- (Q) "country immediately"
- (R) "Ukraine has urged its citizens"
- (S) "to leave the"
- The sentence is about Ukraine urging its citizens to perform a certain action. So, starting with (R) makes sense.
- After "Ukraine has urged its citizens" (R), the next logical phrase is (P) "living in Russia" to specify which citizens.
- Following this, (S) "to leave the" logically follows, completing most of the action.
- Concluding with (Q) "country immediately" complements "to leave the" and completes the sentence.
- So, the correct order is RPSQ: "Ukraine has urged its citizens living in Russia to leave the country immediately."
The correct sequence is Option:2, RPSQ.
