Choose the grammatically correct sentence.
Answer: C
Correct answer: The receptionist should answer courteously the questions of all the callers.
Should states what is proper for the receptionist to do, which is what a rule of conduct expresses; of all the callers stays next to questions, the noun it belongs to.
Why the others fail:
- the questions what are asked by the callers - what cannot serve as a relative pronoun here; it would have to be that or which.
- answer the questions courteously of all the callers - the adverb splits questions from of all the callers.
- The receptionist courteously should answer… - the adverb is placed before the modal, which is not the natural position.
