Wretched and increasing prevalent mendicants are requesting money on the streets, money that seems to be hard to come by in the deteriorating economy.
(A) Wretched and increasing prevalent mendicants are requesting money on the streets, money that seems
(B) Wretched and increasing prevalent mendicants request money on the streets, money seeming
(C) On the streets wretched and increasingly prevalent mendicants are requesting money that seems
(D) Wretchedly and increasingly prevalent mendicants request money on the streets seeming
(E) Wretchedly and increasingly prevalent mendicants are requesting money on the streets that seems
As it seems, the words Wretched and Prevalent are adjectives modifying mendicants. Increasing is there to modify prevalent. But, an adverb should modify an adjective. So, increasingly would be correct.
A. is incorrect as explained above
B. No increasingly. "money seeming" is wrong.
C. Even if "on the streets" has changed position, the errors are rectified with no additional errors.
D. Logically, "Wretchedly prevalent mendicants" is wrong. Further, removal of comma also changes the meaning.
E. Same use of "Wretchedly prevalent mendicants" is wrong.
