Answer:

1. I have some candy that my mom made in my desk drawer.

2. The boy with red hair is sitting on the fence and whistling.

3. She, in her new outfit, watched her brothers play baseball.

4. Marge, who is a good friend of mine, has a wild personality.

5. I have my television on to Channel 5 almost all the time.

Explanation:

Misplaced modifiers are the modifiers that are placed in such a way that it is far away from the word that is modified. And because of this improper placement away from the word it modifies, the sentence sounds awkward.

The given sentences with misplaced modifiers can be rewritten as follows-

<em>1. I have some candy, that my mom made, in my desk drawer.</em>

<em>2. The boy with red hair is sitting on the fence and whistling.</em>

<em>3. She, in her new outfit, watched her brothers play baseball.</em>

<em>4. Marge, who is a good friend of mine, has a wild personality.</em>

<em>5. I have my television on to Channel 5 almost all the time.</em>
