(4) As Presley opened the box she realized it was full of papers. (5) She was about to stuff them into the trash when something caught her eye. (6) It was an old magazine from 1961 called the woods hill journal. (7) Presley flipped to the table of contents and did a double take when she saw her grandpa's name. (8) He had apparently published a story in this magazine more than 50 years ago! What change is needed in sentence 4?

Question

A.
Change As to Even though

B.
Change opened to opens

C.
Insert a comma after box

D.
Change she to they

Answer 1

The correct change needed in sentence 4 is:

C. Insert a comma after box

So, the revised sentence would read: "As Presley opened the box, she realized it was full of papers." This improves the clarity of the sentence by properly separating the introductory clause from the main clause.
