    Question

    Of the four given options, choose the most appropriate

    one.
    A The professor explained in detail the concept to the students. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B The professor explained the concept to the students in detail. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C The professor explained to the students in detail the concept. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D The professor in detail explained the concept to the students. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In English, adverbial phrases like "in detail" are usually placed at the end when modifying the entire verb phrase.Option 1 disrupts the natural order by placing "in detail" between the verb and object.Option 3 is awkward and unnatural due to the placement of "to the students in detail."Option 4 places "in detail" too early, making the sentence sound unnatural.Thus, Option 2 maintains clarity and follows the correct syntactic structure.
