In this case, I think you need a clause with a subject and a verb, and a word to join this clause with the other parts of the sentence. Choice (A) lacks a subject, right? Choice (C) is completely OK. Is that true, Erin? Hope this answer will not be as stupid as my previous question  ._/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ Kindness in words creates confidence.

Who asks a questions is fool for 5 minutes, who doesn't ask is fool for the rest of his life. Or something like that, but idea is the same. P.S. I have no idea which answer is correct. |

I'm not sure which silly <img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle> question Cinderella is referring to, but is it the pho question?
Anyway, C is the best answer. "when to do sth" functions like a noun clause, and wouldn't fit here. An infinitive would also work: "to form fine, silk-like..." HTH!! Erin Has TestMagic helped you alot? Please help others as they have helped you. Please? Please? |
