- Published on 06 Jan 17

a. 1
b. 2
c. 3
d. 4
e. 5

ANSWER: 2
 
Remove 'then'.

'Than/then' is NOT used with 'as soon as','as long as','so long as'.

e.g. As soon as he came, the boy opened the door.

The correct sentence here should be: As soon as the watchman rings the bell, all the workers assemble in the hall.
