​

Answer 1

The correct sentence: The luggage was not misplaced although it was kept deliberately.

Why this option is correct?

• Option a is incorrect because we used the third form of the verb after using 'was' in the sentence.
• Option c is incorrect as the order of the clauses is incorrect.
• Option d is incorrect because of the wrong sentence structure as it doesn't make sense.

Thus, option B is the right answer: The sentence structure is correct.

Answer 2

Answer:

c. The luggage was kept deliberately although it was not misplaced.
