P. the examination hall
Q. please switch off
R. your mobile phones before
S. you enter
Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer D
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Q is a request, and "switch off" needs what: R "your mobile phones before".
"Before" needs a clause: S "you enter", and "enter" needs a place: P.
So the order is QRSP: "Please switch off your mobile phones before you enter the examination hall."
Worth noting
QSRP puts "you enter" right after "switch off", which leaves "your mobile phones before" in the middle.
