Options for question 30

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. Q has the subject and the verb. Cleaned what? P, which ends on "and".

  2. "And" brings a second action: R "planted twenty", and "twenty" needs a noun: S.

  3. So the order is QPRS: "The students cleaned the whole playground and planted twenty saplings along the wall."

Worth noting

QPSR ends on "planted twenty", which leaves the number with no noun.
