Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: RQSP
Explanation:
Given data
Concept/Approach
State the core action first, add the manner/medium, then attach the defining relative clause, and finally the coordinated result.
Step-by-step construction
R: ‘‘he had read Milton …’’Q: ‘‘… in a prose translation …’’S: ‘‘… which he had borrowed from his teacher …’’P: ‘‘… and enjoyed it immensely.’’Full sentence: ‘‘He told us that he had read Milton in a prose translation which he had borrowed from his teacher and enjoyed it immensely.’’
Why other orders are wrong
Placing P before the relative clause can obscure the antecedent of ‘‘it’’; RQSP preserves clarity.
Common pitfalls
Keep the relative clause adjacent to the noun it qualifies (‘‘translation’’).
