CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. R has the subject and the verb, and "allows" is followed by who and "to": S "each student to borrow".

  2. Borrow what? P "two books at a time", and Q says for how long.

  3. So the order is RSPQ: "The library allows each student to borrow two books at a time for two weeks."

Worth noting

SRPQ opens with "each student to borrow", which has no verb before it. "The library allows" must come first.
