CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Q is the first clause, and P says when, ending on "so", which brings a result.

  2. S is that result, "we had to come back", and R says when.

  3. So the order is QPSR: "The shop was closed when we reached, so we had to come back the next morning."

Worth noting

QPRS puts "the next morning" straight after "so", which gives "the next morning" nothing to do in the sentence.
