Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. R has the subject and the verb. Shouted what? P.

  2. To whom? S "to everyone who walked", and "walked" is followed by where: Q "past his cart".

  3. So the order is RPSQ: "The fruit seller shouted the prices of his mangoes to everyone who walked past his cart."

Worth noting

RSPQ puts "to everyone who walked" before "the prices", which splits "shouted" from what he shouted.
