Options for question 9

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. R has the subject and verb, and "gave me" needs what was given: Q "the wrong change".

  2. "So" brings the result. P "I went back and" needs a second action after "and": S.

  3. So the order is RQPS: "The shopkeeper gave me the wrong change, so I went back and showed him the coins."

Worth noting

RQSP ends on "I went back and", and a sentence cannot stop on "and".
