Secretly determined to break up the drug dealer’s ring, the undercover agent with the local pushers joined forces, without their realizing his identity.

A. Secretly determined to break up the drug dealer’s ring, the undercover agent with the local pushers joined forces

B. Secretly determined to break up the drug dealer’s ring, the undercover agent joined forces with the local pushers

C. The undercover agent secretly joined forces with local pushers in order to destroy their ring

D. The undercover agent joined forces with the local pushers and secretly determined to destroy their ring

E. Secretly determined to destroy the rings, the local pushers and the undercover agent joined forces

Official Explanation



B. Choice B corrects the poor structure of the original wording. Choices C, D, and E change the meaning of the original expression slightly; C and D suggesting that the ring belongs to the pushers, not to the drug dealer, and E implying that the pushers were determined to destroy the ring.
