Answer: D. The lover's initials were carved on the tree.

Explanation:

The modifier in the sentence makes it seem as though lovers were the ones carved on the tree instead of the initials being the ones carved on the tree.

This should be corrected to reflect that the initials were the ones carved on the tree and that they belong to the lovers. Option D gives the best option because in using the possessive ('s), it made it appear that the lovers owned the initials that were carved on the tree.

Answer C:

While the colony commanders were generally optimistic, as their task was to send the settler groups and hope for the best, the settlers had many other issues.

Despite the beauty and abundance of this new land, its wild and unknown aspects (hostile natives, new diseases, wild beasts) inspired both hope and fear to the settlers.

And the excerpt, from the begging, explores these feelings making the questions that the settlers might have asked themselves when entering Virginia.
