参考答案及解析：

1.The correct answer is C

Explanation

Choice (C) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by comparing what “Modern discus throwers” do to what “ancient Greeks did” (not to “ancient Greece,” a comparison that would not make logical sense).

2.The correct answer is B

Explanation

Choice (B) is correct. It avoids the modification error of the original by replacing the modifying phrase ("Although hailed as one of the greatest choreographers of his time") with the dependent clause ("Although Merce Cunningham was hailed as one of the greatest choreographers of his time"). It does not make sense to say that his "company," rather than Merce Cunningham himself, was "hailed as one of the greatest choreographers of his time."

3.The correct answer is E

Explanation

Choice (E) is correct. It avoids the error of the original by using the appropriate pronoun “where” to indicate that the “United States” was where Caruso gave “his first performance at the Metropolitan Opera.”

4.The correct answer is C

Explanation

Choice (C) is correct. It avoids the unidiomatic phrasing and wordiness of the original by replacing the unidiomatic participial phrase “Being that she has a gift for comic timing” with the more concise and idiomatic prepositional phrase “With her gift for comic timing.”
