Question

Having been served lunch, _______.
A.	the problem was discussed by the members of the committee
B.	the committee members discussed the problem
C.	a discussion of the problem was made by the members of the committee
D.	it was discussed by the committee members the problem

Note: I chose B. but the solution says it is A. I think it must be a mistake. Do you agree?

Answer

Yes, definitely it should be B.  You are a smart learner!

Answer

I agree. It should be B. A implies that the "problem," rather than the "committee," was served lunch, a mistake that we call a dangling modifier. Note that even native speakers of English make this type of errors.
