Q. When the whole lit side faces us, we see a full moon.
R. The opposite happens at new moon: the lit side faces away, and the Moon seems to vanish.

CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

S opens with the fact. T says what "we see" instead.
P explains the changing shapes, Q gives the full moon, and R is "the opposite", so it follows Q.
So the order is STPQR.

Worth noting

TSPQR opens with "what we see", before the paragraph has said what it is explaining.
