Question

In the sentence below, four words are given in bold. These words may or may not be in their correct positions. Identify the correct pair(s) of words that need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. If the sentence is already correct, choose "No interchange required".

After having (A) the stress seemed (B) on a president, witnessing (C) access to a personal chef placed (D) to be the best perk of the job.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The sentence as given is: "After having (A) the stress seemed (B) on a president, witnessing (C) access to a personal chef placed (D) to be the best perk of the job."

2. The phrase "the stress seemed on a president" (B) is incorrect. It should be "the stress seemed to be on a president".

3. The phrase "witnessing access to a personal chef" (C) is awkward and incorrect here. It should be "having access to a personal chef".

4. Interchanging words at positions B and C corrects these errors:
   - "the stress seemed to be on a president"
   - "having access to a personal chef"

5. The corrected sentence reads: "After having the stress seemed to be on a president, having access to a personal chef placed to be the best perk of the job."

6. The rest of the sentence is contextually acceptable.
