Question 163
EasyOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. medicine there
Q. and studies
R. the postman brought
S. who lives in Canada
T. a letter from my cousin
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
R has the subject and the verb. Brought what? T. S says where the cousin lives.
Q adds a second fact about the cousin with "and studies", which needs what: P.
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.
