Question

Tap the option that uses an ellipted clause correctly.

'The room, which was dark, damp, and musty, thoroughly failed to impress me.'

• A. The room—dark, damp, and musty—thoroughly failed to impress me.
• B. The dark, damp, and musty room thoroughly failed to impress me.

Answer 1

The correct option is A The room—dark, damp, and musty—thoroughly failed to impress me.

Here, 'which was' is omitted. The ellipted clause 'dark, damp, and musty' is placed in the middle.
