Question 5 • Common Core ELA 11 - ELA3011 IC

Which revision makes it more clear that Erin speaks to her husband on Tuesday?

Answer
A
She would go to the store on Tuesday, Erin told her husband.
B
Erin told her husband to the store on Tuesday she would go.
C
On Tuesday, Erin told her husband that she would go to the store.

Explanation

Place “On Tuesday” at the beginning of the sentence so it clearly tells when Erin spoke to her husband. Choice C says, “On Tuesday, Erin told her husband that she would go to the store.” In choice A, the placement of “on Tuesday” makes it sound as though Tuesday is when Erin would go to the store, not when she spoke.
