=Exercise 204--Misplaced Modifiers=
Sometimes a sentence is not clear because a modifier does not stand
close to the word it modifies.
_Wrong_: I can't _even_ do the first problem.
_Right_: I can't do _even_ the first problem.
Change the order of words in the following sentences, placing each
modifier as closely as possible to the word which it modifies. Some of
the sentences are incorrect because they contain split infinitives. (See
Exercise 92.)
