Question 154
EasyOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. the bus stand sells
Q. tea and snacks
R. to the drivers who
S. the little shop near
T. stop there at night
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
S begins the subject and ends on "near", which needs a place: P "the bus stand", then the verb "sells".
Sells what? Q. To whom? R "to the drivers who", and "who" needs a verb: T.
So the order is SPQRT: "The little shop near the bus stand sells tea and snacks to the drivers who stop there at night."
Worth noting
SQPRT puts "tea and snacks" straight after "near", which makes no sense and leaves "the bus stand sells" in the middle.
