Can you lay aside (P) to talk to me (Q) your work (R) for sometime ? (S)

  • A.QSRP
  • B.RQSP
  • C.PRSQ
  • D.SPRQ

Answer: C

The correct order is PRSQ: Can you lay aside your work for sometime to talk to me?

Lay aside means to put something down or stop doing it for a while. The question opens with Can you lay aside (P), its object your work (R) follows, then the duration for sometime (S), and finally the purpose, to talk to me (Q), which explains why the work should be put aside. (Standard spelling would be for some time.)

QSRP and RQSP do not begin with the auxiliary Can, so they cannot form the question. SPRQ starts with for sometime and puts it before Can you, which leaves a broken question.
