5 ACT English Test Preparation Misplaced Modifiers Practice The brakes were faulty, which had to go into the shop. The boy dropped his ball off the building which bounced..a. NO CHANGE b. faulty which c. faulty, and the car d. faulty, the car.f. NO CHANGE g. The boy, which bounced, dropped his ball off the building h. The boy which bounced dropped his ball off the building j. The boy dropped his ball, which bounced, off the building. In this sentence, which modifies the word car. One would not send just the brakes into the shop, so the sentence must be changed. Choice B is incorrect because it does not change the sentence, it just drops the comma. Choice D is incorrect because changing which to the car makes the second part of the sentence a clause, not a phrase. Without a connector word, such as and in choice C, the sentence becomes a comma splice. C is the correct choice. Look at the item that matches the number of the underlined part.. The phrase which bounced modifies the noun ball. Choice F is not correct because we cannot be sure which noun bounced modifies boy, ball, or building. Choice G is incorrect because bounced incorrectly modifies boy (a boy who bounces, not which bounces). Choice H is incorrect for the same reason. J is the correct choice. Look at the item that matches the number of the underlined part. Pick the best replacement for the underlined part. If the underlined part is the best, then select NO CHANGE.
