Question 3) The best sentence here that illustrates an understood relationship is most likely D - 'Detective Smiley scanned the dim hallway. He pulled his pistol from its holster'. This is because the reader is already likely to understand the assigned role of a detective in the story, and that a dim hallway might therefore indicate danger that necessitates him to be armed.

Question 10) The connective that belongs in the blank in this sentence would be answer A. 'Everyone appeared to be having a good time. Of course, my impressions may have been wrong.' This is due to the fact that 'Of course' is the only available connective that implies a negation of the previous sentence.

Question 13) The correct answer here is B. 'In formal business correspondence, it's best to keep the language impersonal'. This is true, as personal language and familiarity is usually considered unprofessional in a business setting.

Question 15) The correct answer is A - the sentence that has a dangling modifier is 'On the way to the bank, the interest rates went down', as in this sentence it could be argued that it is written as if the interest rates themselves are on the way to the bank.

Question 16) The correct answer is B - the statement that is correct about connecting paragraphs is 'You can use a pointing word that refers to a word in the previous paragraph.'
