Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
R opens with the announcement. P is how "most students" reacted.
T turns with "but", S gives what "they" tried, and Q is "on the bus home".
So the order is RPTSQ.
Worth noting
RPSTQ has "they" lighting bulbs before the museum has turned out to be fun.
