Question 1:
Choose the sentence with the right word order
A. Who had been sleeping during the flight the man woke up.
B. The man during the flight who had been sleeping woke up.
C. The man woke up who had been sleeping during the flight.
D. The man who had been sleeping during the flight woke up.
Feedback The subject is normally placed before the predicate. Note, that very often the subject is not a single word. Here: 'The man who had been sleeping during the flight' - is the subject. Then, you should pay attention to the word order inside this phrase: the man - is on the first place and relative clause with 'who' follows it.
