13. When an adverb modifies a verb with a helping verb, the adverb should generally be placed

A. before the helping verb.
B. after the helping verb.
C. at the end of the sentence.
D. at the beginning of the sentence.

Ms.Sue I just submitted my answers and got this question wrong,it was not A.
Answered by Ms. Sue
See my previous post

Some adverbs do go between the helping verb and the main verb -- but many do not.

Answered by Brady
13. I would think that B is the answer. Adverbs normally go in between the helping verb and the main verb.

I hope this helps! :)
Answered by Brady
Well, Ms. Sue is more correct, but I still think that B makes the most sense.
Answered by Ms. Sue
I usually have driven a stick shift.

We probably will never see an end to war.

Answered by Ms. Sue
My point is that both A and B can be correct. The question is faulty.
Answered by Sarah
Brady you were right the answer was B. :) Thanks a lot.
Answered by Sarah

Answered by Brady
You're welcome, Sarah. :)

P.S. Just keep in mind what Ms. Sue said about the question, I do kind of agree with her about the question.
Answered by Ms. Sue
