Question 1 Report

From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences.

The place was quite neat except for ______ on the floor. 

Answer Details
The word that best completes the sentence is "some dirt." The sentence "The place was quite neat except for some dirt on the floor" means that everything in the place looked clean and tidy except for a small amount of dirt on the floor. The phrase "some dirt" refers to a quantity of dirt that is not specified, but is enough to be noticeable. The other options do not fit in this context - "dirty" is an adjective, "a dirt" and "dirtiness" are not used in this type of sentence. Therefore, "some dirt" is the correct answer.
