Q. to prepare for the Christmas rush
R. non-food retailers are struggling to
S. get enough stock into their warehouses
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2. i.e. PRSQ.
- The original sentence is a bit jumbled and does not follow a clear structure.
- The corrected sentence follows a more logical order of information, starting with the subject "there are reports" and then providing more details about what those reports are saying.
- The verb phrase "are struggling to get enough stock" is placed closer to the subject it relates to, "non-food retailers," and the information about specific types of non-food retailers, such as toy shops, is included at the end.
Thus, the corrected sentence would be:
There are reports that non-food retailers are struggling to get enough stock into their warehouses to prepare for the Christmas rush, including toy shops and other.
