I have a question.

<p>Which sentence is correct and why? </p>

<p>Sent 1: Surfing the internet for hours at a time, (Claudia stares at her computer screen until her eyes begin to hurt).</p>

<p>bump please</p>

<p>10char</p>

<p>The first one’s correct. When I read the second sentence, it sounded awkward.</p>

<p>first one is correct.</p>

<p>to make the second one correct you must add “While” to the beginning of the sentence.</p>
