Cat Clinic...

Expert replies

Dreading another trip to the cat clinic, her veterinarian was persuaded to treat her cat at her home, a rather combative two-year-old black male.

(A) her veterinarian was persuaded to treat her cat at her home, a rather combative two-year-old black male
(B) she persuaded her veterinarian to treat her cat at her home, the cat being a rather combative two-year-old black male
(C) Jessica persuaded her veterinarian to treat her cat, a rather combative two-year-old black male, at her home
(D) Jessica persuaded her veterinarian that her rather combative two-year-old black male cat would best be treated at her home
(E) she persuaded her veterinarian that her home should be the place that her rather combative two-year-old black male cat was treated at

[spoiler]
OA is C. My question is, can the corrected sentence add some absolutely new information (like the name Jessica)? Source: Kaplan 800

Modifier rule is the key to this sentence.

Jessica persuaded her veterinarian to treat her cat, a rather combative two-year-old black male, at her home

Its indeed a one off question (grammatically correct though) but C is the best choice as the modifiers stay close to what's being modified. Appositives(noun modifiers) should follow the touch rule i.e stay close and touch the noun it modifies.The modifier can be before or after the noun.

Dreading another trip to the cat clinic,-> This can only be Jessica

her cat, a rather combative two-year-old black male, at her home (modifier for the cat) in C

is better than

that her rather combative two-year-old black male cat would best be treated at her home in D



C is better constructed than D


Hope this helps!
