Options for question 163

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. R has the subject and the verb. Brought what? T. S says where the cousin lives.

  2. Q adds a second fact about the cousin with "and studies", which needs what: P.

  3. So the order is RTSQP: "The postman brought a letter from my cousin who lives in Canada and studies medicine there."

Worth noting

RTSPQ ends on "and studies", with "medicine there" moved before it, so "studies" has no object.
