Options for question 210

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. T begins "so ... that": "it was so cold", and R brings "that" and the result's subject.

  2. P completes "the water in the pipes" and gives it the verb "froze". Q adds a second result with "and we had", completed by S.

  3. So the order is TRPQS: "It was so cold that the water in the pipes froze and we had no water for two days."

Worth noting

RTPQS opens with "that the water", with no "so" before it for "that" to answer.
