Choose the grammatically correct sentence.

  • A.The early age of three or four years would begin our first recollection of the world for many of us.
  • B.Our first recollection of the world,for many of us,would be early age of three or four years.
  • C.For many of us,our first recollection of the world being the early age of the only three or four years.
  • D.For many of us our first recollection of the world has been the early age of only three or four years.

Answer: A

Correct answer: For many of us our first recollection of the world has been the early age of only three or four years.

The subject is our first recollection and the complement is the age at which it occurred, which is the only arrangement that makes sense of the two ideas.

Why the others fail:

  • The early age… would begin our first recollection - an age cannot begin a recollection.
  • …would be early age of three or four years - the article is missing and would makes a plain fact conditional.
  • …our first recollection of the world being the early age… - a participle where a finite verb is needed, so there is no main clause.
