Question

Complete the sentence with a suitable clause:
I can't repair the dishwasher myself, ___________________________.

• A. That it has broken down
• B. Because I had it repaired
• C. So I will get someone to do it for me
• D. Unless the repairman had helped me

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

So I will get someone to do it for me

Option C correctly establishes the cause and effect of the events mentioned in the first part of the sentence and, thus, is the most suitable option. Option A re-establishes that the dishwasher is to be repaired, but does not offer a solution. Option B makes no sense in the sequence of the sentence. If it is repaired, their should be no question of the speaker repairing it again. Option D has the verb in the past tense where the event taking place in the first part of the sentence is in the present tense. Thus, Option C is the most suitable option.
