Shareese's grandmother came to her graduation from Texas. How can the student best correct the misplaced modifier in her sentence?

This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online:

A. She can place the phrase "from Texas" after "Shareese's".

B. She can place "from Texas" at the very beginning of the sentence.

C. She can place the phrase "from Texas" before the word "graduation".

D. She can place the phrase "from Texas" after the word "grandmother".

To correct the misplace modifier:

D. She can place the phrase "from Texas" after the word "grandmother".

Explanation:

A misplaced modifier is a word or phrase that is placed incorrectly in a sentence. Because of that, it changes the meaning of the sentence, making it ambiguous, that is, causing more than one interpretation of the sentence to be possible.

In the sentence we are analyzing here, "from Texas" is the misplaced modifier. Its position leads to two possible meanings: the grandmother is from Texas, or Shareese is graduating from Texas (University).

To correct the sentence, we must change the position of the modifier. However, we can not simply place it anywhere. If we do, the sentence will not make sense. When we try different places for it, we can see that after the word "grandmother" is the best one. It clarifies that "from Texas" indicates where the grandmother is coming from:

Shareese's grandmother from Texas came to her graduation.
