Drum roll please...

Last weeks poll question was,
"She was ____ up by her grandparents from the age of seven."
A. brought
B. raised
C. taken
D. turned
The correct answer with 80% of the votes was "brought".
Because the next word in the sentence is "up"
which completes the idiom "brought up".
If we removed the "up" then "raised" would
have been the correct answer instead.
