Question

Fill the blanks with the correct verbs. Susan wanted to __________ before she __________ the table for dinner. A) lie, sit B) feel, set C) rest, set

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Susan wanted to __rest__ before she __set__ the table for dinner.

Answer 2

Answer:

C) rest, set

Explanation:

The first answer, "lie, sit," does not make that much sense. She wanted to lie before she sit the table? Lie on what? Lie about what? What is sitting the table? It doesn't make sense. The second answer, "feel, set," does not make sense either. She wanted to feel before she set the table? Feel what? The second part of the answer does make sense: set the table. Setting the table means putting the utensils(forks, knives, spoons) so they are ready when you have dinner. however, the first part of the answer doesn't make sense, so this is not it. The last answer, "rest, set," does make sense. She wanted to rest before she set the table. Maybe Susan is feeling tired, and she wanted to rest(like taking a nap) before she got out all the utensils.
