CHOICES

6

Choice-A

Professors who energetically deliver their lectures are often perceived to be more approachable and knowledgeable.

In this sentence, "energetically" appropriately modifies the verb "deliver," and the sentence is grammatically sound. It effectively communicates that professors who deliver their lectures with energy are often seen as more approachable and knowledgeable.

Correct No change

7

Choice-B

Professors who deliver their lectures are often energetically perceived to be more approachable and knowledgeable.

Choice B is incorrect. “Energetically” is a misplaced modifier because it ends up modifying “perceived” instead of “deliver,” changing the intended meaning of the sentence.

Wrong deliver their lectures are often energetically perceived

8

Choice-C

Professors who deliver their lectures are often perceived energetically to be more approachable and knowledgeable.

Choice C is incorrect. Placing “energetically” near “perceived” makes it seem like the perception is energetic instead of the lecture delivery. To express the correct meaning, the modifier should be placed next to “deliver.”

Wrong deliver their lectures are often perceived energetically

9

Choice-D

Professors who deliver their energetically lectures are often perceived to be more approachable and knowledgeable.

Choice D is incorrect due to the placement of "energetically." The adverb should be positioned before the verb it is modifying. In this case, "energetically" should come before "deliver," not before "lectures."
