Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Correct Answer: ADCB
Explanation:
• Part A introduces the action: "Frantically, he wound down both his..." which requires an object. The determiner "his" connects naturally to D ("windows and gasped for").
• Part D ends with the preposition "for", which pairs with the noun "oxygen" in part C ("gasped for oxygen from the very").
• Part C concludes with "from the very", seamlessly leading into B ("depths of his lungs.") to complete the prepositional phrase.
• Thus, the coherent sentence formed is: "Frantically, he wound down both his windows and gasped for oxygen from the very depths of his lungs."
