Growing up in Wisconsin, art was always important to her. Find the misplaced modifier

English
1 answer:
olga nikolaevna [1]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

This one is a classic misplace. I first learned about it by encountering this sentence. <em>Running up a tree, I saw a squirrel. </em>It's pretty obvious what's wrong. Who or what is running up that tree. Certainly not me.

This example is much the same. Art is not growing up in Wisconsin. She is growing up in Wisconsin. However fixing it is not so simple. How about

Answer: <em>She found art to be important in her growing up years. </em>

It's not perfect, but it is correct.

Reported Statements Change this direct speech into reported speech 11. "I don't like chocolate" She told me 12. "I won't see you
koban [17]

11)She told me that she doesn't like chocolate.

12)She told me that she won't see me/ won't be able to see me tomorrow.

13)She told me that she's living in Paris for a few months.

14)She told me that she visited her parents at the weekend.

15)She told me that she hasn't eaten sushi before.

16)She told me that she hadn't traveled by underground before she came to London.

17)She told me that they would help if they could.

18)She told me that she will do the washing up later.

19)She told me that he could read when he was three.

20)She told me that she was sleeping when Julie called.

Direct speech means to say exactly what someone else said. It is usually put inside quotation marks (". . .").

He says, "I have the package."

Reported speech (also called indirect speech) means to say what someone else said, without actually quoting them. Meaning, you don't necessarily use their own words.

You don't use quotation marks with reported speech.

He says he has the package.

To report what someone said we usually use verbs such as:

Say, tell, ask, explain, request, etc.

For example:

She says we should go.

They told us to bring our stuff.

He asked them the time.

I explained the rules to her.

<u>The</u><u> </u><u>word</u><u> </u><u>"</u><u> </u><u>that</u><u>"</u><u> </u>

The word THAT can be used after reporting verbs to begin the statement. But remember – it is optional.

You can use it or leave it out, as you prefer.

For example:

She says they are full = She says that they are full

I told them we could help = I told them that we could help

I suggest we start = I suggest that we start

<u>How to report</u>

When you quote what someone else has said (direct speech) it's very simple: nothing changes and you put the statement between quotation marks.

But when you report a statement (tell it in your own words), there are obviously some necessary changes on the pronouns, tenses (not all of them), the place and time expressions.

Hope I helped.
