Correct answer: A

"Would rather ... than" sets two things side by side: T, then what I would rather do: S.
R brings "than" and the other thing, which needs a noun: Q "a bus that". "That" needs a verb: P.
So the order is TSRQP: "I would rather walk to the market than wait for a bus that never comes on time."

Worth noting

TRSQP puts "than wait for" straight after "would rather", before the thing I would rather do.
