Question 203
MediumOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. us to read
Q. our teacher advised
R. to improve our English
S. if we wanted
T. the newspaper every day
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Q has the subject and the verb, and "advised" is followed by whom and "to": P.
Read what, and how often? T. S begins a condition, and "wanted" needs "to" and a verb: R.
So the order is QPTSR: "Our teacher advised us to read the newspaper every day if we wanted to improve our English."
Worth noting
QPSTR puts "if we wanted" before the newspaper, which cuts "read" off from what they should read.
