Question 231
HardOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. of the match, the
Q. fought until the end
R. of the way they
S. players can be proud
T. whatever the result
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
"Whatever" begins a phrase meaning "no matter what": T, finished by P "of the match," and then "the", which needs a noun.
S completes "the players" and gives them "can be proud", and "proud" is followed by "of": R. Q finishes it.
So the order is TPSRQ: "Whatever the result of the match, the players can be proud of the way they fought until the end."
Worth noting
TSPRQ puts "players can be proud" straight after "whatever the result", which breaks "the result of the match" in two.
