Test, FCE, phrases of purpose and reason
Hi there. There is a quiz from book "Grammar and vocabulary for First Certificate", preparing for the ESOL First Certificate in English (FCE) (Cambridge University) . It's extracted from one module, devoted to Link words : purpose and reason. It implies upper-intermediate level. I hope it would be useful.

Hi! Anybody can help me?
I don't get it why on number 5 we use "due to". It seems weird to me when if we say "The traffic jam is due to to major roadworks." I never seen "to" and "to" together.
Thank you in advance for your answer.

Hi,
It's just a slight error in how the choices are set up. The phrase is just 'due to to'.

I scored 9. Simple assignment. Desperate. I always have mistakes. But! I think that in the 10th sentence you can use both variants:
We'll join the euro because our economy will improve.
We'll join the euro, because of that our economy will improve.
How do you think?
We'll join the euro because our economy will improve.
We'll join the euro, because of that our economy will improve.
How do you think?
