CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. 'fresh' and 'daily' are both in the first two sentences, which share the codes 'ko' and 'tu'. We cannot tell which is which, but together they use up 'ko' and 'tu'.

  2. 'buy' is in the first and third sentences, which share only 'pa'.

  3. In 'ko lin pa tu', removing 'ko', 'tu' and 'pa' leaves 'lin' for 'vegetables'.

Worth noting

A pair of words that always appear together can never be separated, but you can still remove them as a block.
