The moment the manager came to know of the fraudulent action of his assistant, he order immediately dismissed him.
Answer: B
Correct answer: ordered his immediate dismissal
The main clause needs a finite verb, and the sentence gives it two words that cannot both be verbs - order and dismissed. Making ordered the finite verb and turning the second idea into its object cures this: he ordered his immediate dismissal.
Note that immediate, not immediately, is needed once dismissal becomes a noun - adjectives modify nouns, adverbs modify verbs. That is why immediately ordered his dismissed and ordered for immediately dismissal of him both fail.
