Explanation:
The correct answer is- 'SRQP.'
While arranging the parts of the passage given in the options, we have to find some grammatical or contextual connections between them, so let's find out.
The opener will be S as it introduces the context of the paragraph.
R follows S because they are providing a sensible meaning.
RQ is a pair as the word defence is followed by against and provides a complete meaning.
P is providing a conclusion to the context.
Correct sentence: Faith and belief are our greatest defence against the despondency brought by bad times.
