Difficulty: Medium
Correct Answer: QSRP
Explanation:
Given data
Concept/ApproachImperative structure: verb phrase (Q), followed by a defining relative clause (S) that introduces the attendants, completed by an infinitival purpose (R) and adverbs of manner (P).
Step-by-step reconstruction1) Q → command 'ask for attendants'.2) S → 'who have instructions' (qualifies attendants).3) R → 'to help our customers' (purpose of the instructions).4) P → 'promptly and politely' (manner).Sequence: QSRP.
VerificationFull sentence: 'If you need help, ask for attendants who have instructions to help our customers promptly and politely.'
Common pitfallsPlacing P before R separates adverbs from their verb; starting with S lacks an antecedent for 'who'.
Final AnswerCorrect order: QSRP.
