Question 200
MediumOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. the hills where they
Q. their exams, the students
R. went on a trip to
S. having finished
T. stayed for a week
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
"Having" needs a past form: S "having finished", then Q "their exams," and the main subject, "the students".
R gives the students their verb, ending on "to", which needs a place: P "the hills where they". T gives "they" a verb.
So the order is SQRPT: "Having finished their exams, the students went on a trip to the hills where they stayed for a week."
Worth noting
SQPRT puts "the hills where they" straight after "the students", which leaves "went on a trip to" pointing at "stayed".
