To identify the best correction of the clause fragment "When you get to the end of the block," you need to understand the purpose of the sentence and correct any grammatical errors or clarify any confusing elements.
Option A suggests deleting "of the block" to remove the unnecessary detail. However, this would result in an incomplete sentence.
Option B suggests changing "you" to "we." This would make the sentence more inclusive and could be an appropriate correction depending on the context.
Option C suggests changing "When" to "After." This would change the meaning of the sentence slightly, but it may be a better fit depending on the intended timing or sequence of events.
Option D suggests adding "Turn" to the beginning of the fragment. This would provide a clear instruction for what to do when reaching the end of the block.
Based on your choice of option D, it seems you have chosen the correction that best fits the sentence. Adding "Turn" to the beginning of the fragment would provide a clear instruction, resulting in a complete sentence: "Turn when you get to the end of the block."
Moving on to the next question regarding the clause fragment "Although they had never been to that theater":
