Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: C. one cannot be expected
The sentence is grammatically correct, but it is awkward and unclear. The word “functioned” is a past participle, and it is not clear what the subject of the sentence is. The sentence could be improved by adding a subject and a verb. For example:
- In the absence of clear instructions, one cannot be expected to function effectively.
- In the absence of clear instructions, the team cannot be expected to function effectively.
- In the absence of clear instructions, the machine cannot be expected to function effectively.
The sentence could also be improved by changing the verb “functioned” to a more active verb. For example:
- In the absence of clear instructions, one cannot be expected to perform effectively.
- In the absence of clear instructions, the team cannot be expected to perform effectively.
- In the absence of clear instructions, the machine cannot be expected to perform effectively.
