Comments
1 seems to make the most sense but I would probably rephrase it if I were you.
In the next set, 8 is correct. 11-14, 11 makes sense, but again, its confusing so I would rephrase it. 15-18, 15 is certainly correct. If you have any trouble with these kinds of questions again. I recommend you say them out loud and choose the one that sounds right. (trust you instincts
)
Hope this helps
No(s) 8 and15 are the only ones that are grammatically correct.
