Question

Identify the sentence with the correct modifier placement:

• A. Running down the street, my backpack fell off.
• B. I almost saw 30 birds in the sky.
• C. She served sandwiches to the children on paper plates.
• D. Exhausted after the meeting, the report was finally written by Ravi.

Hint:

Ensure modifiers are placed next to the words they modify to avoid ambiguity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The text confirms that the children were served sandwiches on paper plates. Additionally, several sentences exhibit misplaced modifiers:

- Sentence (1) incorrectly implies the backpack was in motion.
- Sentence (2) suggests the speaker experienced a near-sighting of the birds.
- Sentence (4) indicates the report was fatigued.
