<p>Alright, here's an official English question.</p>
<p>"Others, salt-encrusted, 'sleep' in ancient caverns, waking after centuries to feed and to breed. Radioactive pools of toxic waste are okay for others to live in; even acid cannot kill them."</p>
<p>F. NO CHANGE
G. are all right for others to live in;
H. are home to still others;
J. suit others to a tee;</p>
<p>I can't really discern between the answer choices- any help?</p>
<p>F & G end the clause in prepostions so they are out. J uses a phrase that deviates from the author’s serious and scholarly style. So H, even though “still others,” seems strange is the correct answer.</p>
<p>Yes, H. And I don’t really think it sounds strange. F & G are out for the reasons he stated above, and the writer already said “others”, so he/she can’t really say that again. “still others” sounds best, and J is just silly.</p>
<p>Yep, H is the right answer. However, this is the first time I have seen the ACT testing the rule of not ending a sentence with a preposition. It just seems strange…</p>
<p>Sorry, I am confused. Is it not ok to end a sentence with a preposition?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>In some situations it is acceptable, but for the sake of the test, avoid it.</p>
