CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. P ends on "the first", which needs a noun: S "woman from her village".

  2. "The first ... to" is followed by a verb: Q, and R adds a second verb with "and", which needs an object: T.

  3. So the order is PSQRT: "She was the first woman from her village to become a pilot and fly passenger planes."

Worth noting

PSRQT puts "and fly" before "to become a pilot", so "and" joins nothing.
