Question 76
MediumOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. thousands of people
Q. watch the evening aarti
R. despite the heavy rain,
S. gathered at the ghat to
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
"Despite" begins with a noun phrase and a comma: R. The main clause's subject follows: P.
S gives the verb and ends on "to", which needs a verb: Q "watch the evening aarti".
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".
