Grammar
from/ until
Hello there,
I have some doubts about the standard answer provided in my grammar test.
Dora started to work ___ the afternoon because she felt lazy.(A)until (B)from
The answer is (A), but what’s wrong if I choose (B)? If Dora works in shifts and her work usually starts after noon, could (B) be a possible answer?
Thanks for anwering my question!
