Options for question 19

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. P has the subject and the verb. Hid where? R, which ends on "so that", a purpose.

  2. "So that" needs a clause: S "her brother would not", and "would not" needs a verb: Q.

  3. So the order is PRSQ: "The little girl hid behind the curtain so that her brother would not find her during the game."

Worth noting

PSRQ puts "her brother would not" right after "hid", so "behind the curtain so that" lands between "would not" and "find".
