Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. Q begins the subject, and "of" needs an -ing word: S "building a library in".

  2. "In" needs a place: P "the village", with the verb "came from", and "from" needs whom: R.

  3. So the order is QSPR: "The idea of building a library in the village came from a retired teacher."

Worth noting

SQRP opens with "building a library in", which leaves "the idea of" after the idea itself.
