Rearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.

P. stopped at midnight

Q. hardly anyone

R. noticed that the clock

S. in the tower had

Explanation

1. 01

   Q is the subject, "hardly anyone", which means almost nobody. R gives its verb and begins a "that" clause.

2. 02

   S completes "the clock in the tower" and brings "had", which needs a past form: P.

3. 03

   So the order is QRSP: "Hardly anyone noticed that the clock in the tower had stopped at midnight."
