Answer: The correct answer is: [B]:
_______________________________________________
" Statement 2 only —
"Driving is a dangerous nerve-wracking business. {sic}.
_______________________________________________
The original statement—that is, "Statement 2" :
" Driving is a dangerous nerve-wracking business! " {sic} ;
_______________________________________________
→ should be rewritten properly and correctly—by adding a "comma" directly after the word [adjective] , "dangerous" — and before the word [that is an adjective or functions as an adjective— "nerve-wracking" ; as follows:
_______________________________________________
→ " Driving is a dangerous, nerve-wracking business! "
_______________________________________________
Note the 2 (two) consecutive adjectives:
"dangerous" ; and:
"nerve-wracking" [which is an adjective; or functions as an adjective.].
______________________________________________
Let us add the word: "and" ; between the two adjectives and rewrite the sentence; as follows:
______________________________________________
→ " Driving is a dangerous and nerve-wracking business! "
______________________________________________
This does make sense (in its own right) and does not alter the original meaning of the sentence.
______________________________________________
Now, let us switch the order of the 2 (two) consecutive
adjectives and rewrite the sentence; as follows:
______________________________________________
→ " Driving is a nerve-wracking and dangerous business! "
______________________________________________
Again, this does make sense (in its own right) and does not alter the original meaning of the sentence.
______________________________________________
As such, the given statement should be written properly and correctly with a "comment" between the 2 (two) adjectives; as follows:
______________________________________________
→ " Driving is a nerve-wracking, dangerous business! "
______________________________________________
So; this answer:
→ Answer choice: [B]: "Statement 2 only" ; is the correct answer.
______________________________________________
Let us consider the other answer choices to confirm that:
→ Answer choice: [B]: "Statement 2 only" is, in fact, the correct answer.
______________________________________________
Consider the other answer choices:
_______________________________________________
Choice: [A]: " Statement I only." — "This is a spicy hot tamale."
Note: The adjective "spicy" modifies the "noun phrase"—"hot tamale".
If we were to rewrite the sentence, as follows:
"This is a spicy and hot tamale." — this would sound confusing—compared to the original statement.
Furthermore, if we were to rewrite the sentence as:
"This is a hot and spicy tamale." — this would sound confusing—compared to the original statement—and could be interpreted as [a] different meaning[s} from the original statement.
So; we can rule out: Choice: [A].
_______________________________________________
Choice: [C]: " Statement III only." —
"Would you bring me a bright red apple?"
Note: The adjective "bright" modifies the "noun phrase"—"red".
If we were to rewrite the sentence, as follows:
"Would you bring me a bright and red apple?" — this would sound confusing—compared to the original statement.
Furthermore, if we were to rewrite the sentence as:
"Would you bring me a red and bright apple?" — this would sound confusing—compared to the original statement—and could be interpreted as [a] different meaning[s} from the original statement.
So; we can rule out: Choice: [C].
_______________________________________________
Choice: [D]: " Statement 4 only." —
"Where are the slightly worn-out slippers?"
Note: The adjective "slightly" modifies the adjective—"worn-out".
If we were to rewrite the sentence, as follows:
"Where are the slightly and worn-out slippers?" — this would sound confusing and would not make sense—both it in its own right—and compared to the original statement.
Furthermore, if we were to rewrite the sentence as:
"Where are the worn-out and slightly slippers?" — this, too, would sound confusing and would not make sense—both it in its own right—and compared to the original statement.
So; we can rule out: Choice: [D].
