Choose the sentence with no modifier error.

A She almost drove her car for two hours straight.

B She drove her car for almost two hours straight.

C She drove almost her car for two hours straight.

D Almost she drove her car for two hours straight.

Explanation

"Almost" should modify "two hours," meaning close to two hours, not the act of driving itself; placing it before "two hours" fixes the misplaced modifier.
