Rearrange the parts of the sentence in the correct order.
The aim of platonic
P: into a God
Q: philosophy was to
R: exalt man
- AQPR
- BRPQ
- CPRQ
- DQRP
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's link the parts logically:
The introductory phrase ends with the adjective "platonic", which needs a noun to modify. Part Q starts with "philosophy was to", making "platonic philosophy" a perfect subject phrase.
After "was to", we need a base form verb (V
1
) to form an infinitive construction. Part R starts with "exalt man", which fits perfectly.
To finalize whom or what man is being exalted into, part P completes the thought: "into a God".
Combining them gives: "The aim of platonic philosophy was to exalt man into a God."
Hence, the correct sequence is QRP.
