CHOICES

6

Choice-A

The customers whispered in disappointment than usual as the service turned out slower while the waiter struggled with the orders. The sentence is incorrect because the modifier is misplaced, making the cause of the customers' disappointment unclear. It awkwardly suggests that the service was turning out slower and the customers whispering happened at the same time as the waiter struggling, but it doesn’t clearly show what caused what.

Wrong No change

7

Choice-B

The customers whispered while the waiter struggle with the orders in disappointment as the service turn out slower than usual. The sentence is incorrect because the modifier is misplaced, making it unclear who is disappointed. It seems to describe the waiter’s struggle, but logically, it is the customers who are disappointed. Misplacing the modifier confuses which noun or action it is intended to modify.

Wrong The customers whispered while the waiter struggle with the orders in disappointment as the service turn out slower than usual.

8

Choice-C

The customers whispered in disappointment while the waiter struggled with the orders, as the service turned out slower than usual. The sentence is correct because the modifiers are placed clearly and logically, showing who is feeling what and when. All modifiers are placed next to the words they describe, making the meaning clear and the sentence well-structured.

Correct The customers whispered in disappointment while the waiter struggled with the orders, as the service turned out slower than usual.

9

Choice-D

Waiter struggled with the orders the customers whispered in disappointment while the as the service turned out slower than usual. The sentence is incorrect; it lacks proper punctuation and structure. The phrase “while the as the service turned out slower than usual” is incorrect because it combines two ideas without a proper connection. The word "as" is misplaced. The sequence of events is not communicated.

Wrong Waiter struggled with the orders the customers whispered in disappointment while the as the service turned out slower than usual.
