The answer is (i.e. the answer with the misplaced adjective phrase) . . .

<em><u>A.  Mr. Anderson made a table for his wife with three legs</u></em>.

This sentence makes it sound as if Mr. Anderson's wife has three legs, when in fact it is the table that has three legs.

Correctly written, it should look like this . . .

"Mr. Anderson made a table <em>with three legs</em> for his wife."

Answer:

As this is an opinion, I will say Macbeth

Explanation:

Macbeth proves to be more evil than Lady Macbeth.  

1. While she plays a very devious role as inspiring him to commit the deeds of murder, in the final analysis, Macbeth is the one to commit these acts.

2. While Lady Macbeth does display some level of regret, guilt, or remorse about her actions, Macbeth plunges into a deeper moral abyss with his actions and the depravity they represent.  Both characters can fit the label of being evil with their actions and thoughts, Lady Macbeth still had the ability of compassion or even empathy that Macbeth did not possess.
