Options for question 21

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. Q has the subject and the verb, and "told my uncle" is followed by "to" and what to do: R.

  2. S says how often and adds a second instruction with "and to", which needs a verb: P.

  3. So the order is QRSP: "The doctor told my uncle to walk for thirty minutes every day and to eat less sugar."

Worth noting

QRPS puts "eat less sugar" straight after "thirty minutes", and ends on "and to", which needs a verb after it.
