Options for question 76

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. "Despite" begins with a noun phrase and a comma: R. The main clause's subject follows: P.

  2. S gives the verb and ends on "to", which needs a verb: Q "watch the evening aarti".

  3. So the order is RPSQ: "Despite the heavy rain, thousands of people gathered at the ghat to watch the evening aarti."

Worth noting

RSPQ puts "gathered at the ghat to" before its subject, and cuts "to" off from "watch".
