MediumOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. bank is and when
Q. it opens?
R. me where the nearest
S. could you please tell
Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B
Correct answer: B
Explanation
S begins a polite question, and "tell" needs whom: R "me where the nearest".
P completes "the nearest bank is", in statement order inside the question, and adds "and when". Q finishes it.
So the order is SRPQ: "Could you please tell me where the nearest bank is and when it opens?"
Worth noting
RSPQ opens with "me where the nearest", which has no verb before it.
