2) Although Sally was late as usual, she still made it in time for breakfast.
3) Although late as usual, Sally still made it in time for breakfast.
4) All sentences are fine as they are.

Answer 1

The " 2) Although Sally was late as usual, she still made it in time for breakfast" sentence best demonstrates correct modifier/subject usage. All sentences in the choices are the compounding sentence. A compounding sentence is a sentence formed by two related sentences. The first and the third sentence did not have enough subject to form a compounding sentence.
