Question 239
HardOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. you find a market
Q. as colourful as
R. the country will
S. the one in Jaipur's old city
T. nowhere else in
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
"Nowhere else" at the start turns the verb round: T ends on "in", which needs a place: R "the country", then "will".
"Will" comes before its subject here: P "you find a market". Q begins a comparison, completed by S.
So the order is TRPQS: "Nowhere else in the country will you find a market as colourful as the one in Jaipur's old city."
Worth noting
TRQPS puts "as colourful as" straight after "the country will", which leaves "will" with no subject or verb.
