  1. A
    RPQ
  2. B
    RQP
  3. C
    PQR
  4. D
    QPR

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's track the syntax of the components:
The opening introductory phrase is "So, increasingly," which needs a subject and verb to follow. Part R provides the subject and auxiliary verb: "the poor have been".

After "have been" in a continuous sense, a participle (verb+ing) can follow. Part P gives "paying to provide revenues".

Part Q finishes the prepositional requirement of "revenues": "for the Central government".

Putting it together sequentially creates the meaningful sentence: RPQ ("So, increasingly, the poor have been paying to provide revenues for the Central government.")
