Incorrect
Answer:
Carefully, she picked up the fragile glass vase.
This is the correct answer. In this sentence, the adverb “carefully” is correctly placed before the
verb “picked up.” It provides information about how she performed the action, emphasizing her
caution in handling the fragile glass vase.
Running late for the bus, the car wouldn’t start.
This is incorrect. This sentence contains a misplaced modifier. In this sentence, the modifier
“running late for the bus” is misplaced. It makes it seem like the car is running late for the bus.

This is incorrect. This sentence contains a misplaced modifier. The modifier “after eating my
breakfast” is misplaced, making it appear as if the cat ate the breakfast.

electric car.

subject “the team of engineers” is treated as a singular unit, and the verb “is” agrees with it in
the singular form.
The students is arguing about their exam grades.
This is incorrect. The subject “students” is plural and the verb “is” is singular.
, Full Exam Available:
One of the cats are missing.
This is incorrect. The subject “one” is singular, but “are” (plural) is used. It should be “One of the
cats is missing.”
The team were celebrating their victory.
This is incorrect. The team is a collective noun. With collective nouns, a singular verb is used.
The correct sentence would be “The team was celebrating their victory.”

subject must agree with its verb in number. The subject “the dogs” is plural, but the verb “is” is
singular. The correct verb to use is “are”.
