Question 240
HardOriginal questionRearrange the parts to make a meaningful sentence.
P. flooded villages
Q. with her officers,
R. to see the damage for herself
S. the minister, along
T. is visiting the
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
S names the subject and begins "along", completed by Q "with her officers,". The verb agrees with "the minister", so it is "is".
T "is visiting the" needs a noun: P. R says why.
So the order is SQTPR: "The minister, along with her officers, is visiting the flooded villages to see the damage for herself."
Worth noting
STQPR puts "is visiting the" straight after "along", which breaks "along with her officers" in two.
