Options for question 91

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. P has the subject and the verb, and "promised" is followed by "to" and a verb: S.

  2. R adds a second promise with "and to", and Q says by when.

  3. So the order is PSRQ: "The manager promised to look into the complaint and to reply within a week."

Worth noting

PRSQ puts "and to reply" before the first promise, so "and" comes with nothing before it to join.
