@keight16

1. Correct.
2. C (A and B simply don't fit. D could work, but "up" would have to be removed: "held up by" = "supported by".)
3. Correct.
4. Correct.
5. Correct.
6. Correct.
7. D (Information is like water in English; it's a "substance" or a mass noun, not a set of discrete units. "many", "another" and "an" all refer to discrete units, thus incorrect on that basis alone.)
8. Correct.
9. Correct.
10. D ("to draw to a close" is a set phrase)
11. Correct. (although "been met" sounds better to me)
12. Correct.
13. Correct.
14. Correct.
15. Correct.

Perhaps you should try to do it first and we can point out where you've gone wrong, but we're not meant to do your tests for you.

@keight16 "to" here forms a unit with "used" ("used to" = "accustomed to") and is not part of the infinitive "to have". "used to" requires a noun to follow, and "having" is a gerund (a verb form that functions as a noun), so there you go.

I agree. That way we can show you WHY that answer is correct
