Strategy

- Look at the parts of sentences 1–7.

- Are there any reference words to help you?
- Is there a linking word before or after the gap?
- Look for a clause that changes or continues the "flow".
- When you've decided on the appropriate clause, check that it fits grammatically and follows the sense of the text.
Useful tips

- Remember, there is an extra clause there—just to confuse you!
- Pay attention to the words before and after the gap and punctuation.
- It is important to be able to follow the "flow" of a text and to understand how parts of a text are connected.

The British, contrary to logic and common sense, adhere to their system of measures and weights, left-hand traffic and food traditions (an C \(\underline{ }\) is strikingly different from the so-called continental one—a cup of coffee and a bun with jam—in its solidity and solidity).
