Options for question 8

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. "So tired" begins a "so ... that" pair. R opens with the subject and "so tired after".

  2. P finishes "after the long walk home" and brings "that". S says what happened, and "before" needs Q, "dinner was ready".

  3. So the order is RPSQ: "Neha was so tired after the long walk home that she fell asleep before dinner was ready."

Worth noting

PRSQ opens with "the long walk home that", which reads like a subject, but no verb ever comes for it.
