Real items, with the answer marked and the reason written out — the same format as all 22.
___ had she sat down than the phone rang again. Which choice is correct?
Why: 'No sooner ... than' is the fixed correlative pair for two closely following events. 'Hardly' and 'scarcely' pair with 'when', not 'than', so only 'No sooner' completes this structure.
Her argument was so ___ that even her critics were persuaded. Which word fits best?
Why: 'Cogent' means clear, logical, and convincing, which fits persuading even critics. 'Dubious' means doubtful and 'trivial' means unimportant, both of which contradict the sentence.
