<p>By simply entering an Internet website or calling a toll-free number, a catalog order can be placed for almost anything from cheesecakes to fully equipped desktop computers.</p>

<p>i narrowed it down to</p>

<p>A) a catalog order can be placed
D) you can place a catalog order</p>

<p>why do we assume that the sentence is directed towards a “you”? what if the sentence was directed towards a “one”</p>

<p>this should help a little cause I narrowed it down to those 2 as well, but chose A</p>

<p>“one” would also work, but that’s irrelevant. Choice (A) is ungrammatical because the participial phrase would be modifying “a catalog order.” The order isn’t the thing that’s calling a toll-free number.</p>
