Choose the sentence that corrects the dangling modifier: 'Having finished the report, the coffee was poured.'
Correct: A
A dangling modifier occurs when the subject of the introductory phrase is not the same as the grammatical subject of the main clause. In the original sentence, 'Having finished the report' incorrectly modifies 'the coffee.' Option A correctly places 'I' as the subject who performed the action of finishing the report and then poured the coffee, thus resolving the dangling modifier.
