C is passive

Also, "had included" implies that "Call" was included before "Declaration" was drafted.Incorrect

A-Passive and terribly awkward

B-"Including a call.." must modify Elizabeth..Incorrect modifier

D- That is used a non restricitve modifier

Choose E

@Iamcste

I agree E is the best option available.

But I have a doubt in Option E

Declaration of sentiments that was

Shouldnt this be were instead of was

That/who always influenced by the noun preceding it without any regard for prepositional phrase.

If we change the verb in option E to were, the entire sentence goes hay wire.

What do you think. Thanks.

1: out-- sentence fragmentation when << xyz> , was a call... we require a subject

2: out : including a call, illogically modifies draft

3: out :

i have learned somewhere, pls correct me if i am wrong:
when < clause >, clause
we don't require a past perfect tense as when clause itself behaves as the past perfect form

4: sentence fragmentation

5: in

But in E, isn't the "it" have multiple references? One to the Declaration, the other to the Convention?
