Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Let's break down the question and the options carefully to see what each sentence conveys.
Option 1: 'While he was watching the movie Titanic, he fell asleep.' This sentence places the clause 'While he was watching the movie Titanic' at the front, functioning as an introductory time frame, and then states the main action 'he fell asleep.' The meaning is clear: during the watching of Titanic, the man fell asleep. 
Option 2: 'He fell asleep while he was watching the movie Titanic.' Here the main clause 'He fell asleep' appears first, and the subordinate clause 'while he was watching the movie Titanic' provides the timing. The meaning remains the same: the act of falling asleep occurred during the movie. 
Option 3: 'Both of these sentences' is a choice asserting that both sentence 1 and sentence 2 are true descriptions of the event. Since both sentences convey the same event accurately, they are both correct representations of the idea that the man fell asleep during Titanic.
To evaluate the options, compare the structure and the meaning. Sentence 1 and Sentence 2 are two different grammatical orders that still express the same event at the same time. The only sentence that asserts a combination of both is option 3, which claims that both prior sentences are correct. If you consider the semantics, there is no conflicting information between 1 and 2; they are simply stylistic variants. Therefore, the combination that acknowledges both variants as valid reflects the full truth of the statement. 
In summary, understanding how introductory time clauses and main clauses function helps recognize that both sentence 1 and sentence 2 correctly describe the event, and option 3 captures that dual correctness. The reasoning shows why each of the first two sentences stands as a valid expression of the same event, while the third option identifies that dual validity.
