Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. "Though" begins a clause: Q "though the tickets were", finished by P "expensive," which then brings the main clause, "the hall was".

  2. S completes "was full of people who had", and "had" needs a past form: R. T says why they came.

  3. So the order is QPSRT: "Though the tickets were expensive, the hall was full of people who had come from far away to hear the singer."

Worth noting

PQSRT opens with "expensive, the hall was", which leaves "though the tickets were" after the clause it should begin.
