The syntax of English is predominantly fixed, but certain structures allow for the repositioning of constituents to create emphasis or stylistic variation. Concerning sentence structure and inversion, mark the CORRECT alternative.
A The standard order of adjectives before a noun dictates that fact-based adjectives, such as color and origin, must always precede opinion-based adjectives to avoid semantic ambiguity in formal descriptions. B The positioning of indirect objects must occur after the direct object, necessarily followed by the preposition "to" or "for," regardless of whether the indirect object is a pronoun or a long noun phrase. C Subject-auxiliary inversion is mandatory after negative or restrictive adverbial expressions like "seldom," "never," or "under no circumstances" when they are placed at the beginning of a sentence for emphasis. D Cleft sentences starting with "It" (It-clefts) are used to emphasize the verb of the action, moving the verbal phrase to the initial position while the subject is placed at the end of the relative clause. E In exclamatory sentences starting with "Here" or "There," subject-verb inversion occurs only when the subject is a personal pronoun, ensuring that the focal point of the sentence remains at the end of the phrase.
