Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier?
A. Last night, the Moreno family went to a basketball game.
B. In network programs on television, the Morenos have all seen basketball games.
C. However, none of the Morenos had ever been to a sports arena.
D. Two teams from nearby colleges played for the championship.
Answer (2)
B) In network programs on TV, the Morenos have all seen basketball games This is the right answer because it doesn't really have anything to do with the story. Hope this helps!
The sentence that contains a misplaced modifier is option B, which does not clearly connect the Morenos to the basketball games they have seen. All other sentences properly align their modifiers with their subjects. This suggests that B is the least clear among the options provided.
