Question

In context, which is the best version of the underlined portion of the sentence reprinted below?

Question 6 options:

After all, beef was expensive in those days

After all beef, it was expensive in those days

After all the beef, those days were expensive

After all, it was expensive in those days

It, all the beef, was expensive in those days

Answer 1

It was expensive hope this helps!?

Answer 2

Letter A would fit best: 'After all, beef was expensive in those days.'

The placement of 'beef' between commas in the original sentence points it out as the sentence's main Subject (as it is in the letter A's sentence). The pronoun 'it' afterward serves to emphasize the reader's/listener's attention to this Subject. When read out loud, one should put in a special tone at this part, with a quick pause.
