Stranded on a traffic island, speeding buses and trucks held the two pedestrians hostage.

English
1 answer:
Blababa [14]1 year ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Stranded on a traffic island,

what comes next has to be about the 2 "hostages". It can't be about the traffic that is holding them hostage. If this sentence was handed to any English teacher, they would immediate get their red pens out and write "This is a misplaced participial phrase"

It's sort of like the example my English  gave us when I was in high school. She said, "Running up a tree, I saw a squirrel."  Then she asked us to write what thought was running up the tree. She got some pretty interesting answers.

Answer B

The meeting ended in a flurry of shuffling papers, and scraping chairs moving against the hard tile floor, just outside the government building was an aggressive and violent rebellion against the nation and it was just for the right reason. The citizens now notice the state of nature is much better than living in a dollhouse of people who earn that power through malicious events, being convinced that it was the better option. 
''Don't read into it..'' The mother said to her child, she eyed the hostile event and barricaded her home to keep themselves safe.

It was a beginning of living in a resistance that wanted a world for themselves, to fight once again from what they were... developed from.
Vanessa stared, in utter shock of buildings falling from the current war going on in her town, glancing outside and tapping her nails in some rhythm. 

Inspecting her people, she picked up the pistol ready to defend herself.

''Neill? where are you?'' Vanessa asked, looking for her little sister, concern found in her tone.
''You know, you shouldn't leave children alone in a sudden purge..'' grinning winningly the man did, he noted that she cared for the little girl.
''Don't even touch her.'' The Vanessa kept herself calm from shooting the man right on the side of his chest, wanting to kill him painfully and slowly.
''Don't you know how much people hate change? but this change seems quite nice in my view..'' He responded to her, not minding her little threat.



''You know my people.'' He showed a group of men near the corners, shadows lighten their faces as she glared at them, looking at their body movements to see if they had any weapons on.

''What do you want?!'' She hissed at him, feeling threatened by the sudden group.

''You know exactly what we need, sweetie.'' He smirked wickedly.
