Question 21
EasyOriginal questionArrange the sentences in the right order to make a paragraph.
P. Then he rides off to the next street, still ringing his bell.
Q. He rings his bell twice, and everyone comes out with a pot.
R. Every morning, the milkman comes to our street on his bicycle.
S. He pours out the milk from a large can that hangs on the side.
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
R opens: it names the milkman. Q says what "he" does first: rings his bell.
S pours the milk for the people who came out in Q, and P says "then" he rides off.
So the order is RQSP.
Worth noting
QRPS opens with "he", who has not been named yet.
