Select the grammatically correct sentence:
1. There will be a meeting in the long room at 4 o'clock of all the boys who play cricket and football.
2. There will be in the long room at 4 o'clock a meeting of all the boys who play cricket and football.
3. In the long room at 4 o'clock there will be a meeting of all the boys who play cricket and football.
4. There will be a meeting of all the boys who play cricket and football in the long room at 4 o'clock.
Answer: C
It is sentence 3.
The relative clause who play cricket and football describes the boys, so it must sit next to boys. Separating them by two adverbial phrases, as sentences 1 and 2 do, leaves the clause modifying the clock.
