The first sentence in a passage usually introduces a topic. Here, sentence R introduces the topic 'structural violence'. So, R must be the first sentence.

The second sentence provides more information about the first sentence. Here, half of the sentences talk about the term while others talk about Gultang. Since the last sentence also contains his name, the ones with his name are connected and cannot be second. So, either P or T must be the second sentence.

Sentence T introduces 'negative impacts' and sentence P refers to them by the pronoun 'these'. This means sentence T is the second sentence and P is the third sentence.

Now, the sentence that introduces Gultang must be the first among the remaining ones. So, sentence S must be the fourth sentence.

The remaining sentence, Q must be the fifth.  

The correct sequence is: RTPSQ.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
