Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The repair cannot be here until tomorrow. Every sentence requires a noun and a verb that work together grammatically. Answer B is the correct choice because "The repair" is a thing, but the verb as modified "cannot be here until tomorrow" cannot apply to a thing. The modified verb must apply to a person, and "repair" should be replaced with "repair technician." Answer A is not the correct choice because it is a rhetorical question and the noun ("the copier") is implied. Answers C and D both have nouns and verbs ("paper jam" and "has been cleared"; and "copier" and "doubles").
