Question

(8) When this idea seemed silly to me at first, I learned over time that my teacher was right.

What change needs to be made in sentence 8?
A
Change When to Although
B
Change silly to sillier
C
Change the comma after first to a period
D
Change was to were

Answer 1

A. Change When to Although

Explanation: The sentence expresses contrast (it seemed silly at first, but later I learned the teacher was right), so "Although" correctly shows that contrast. "When" suggests time and creates an awkward or incorrect relationship between the clauses.
