To remove a dangling modifier, we have to change the sentence in order to make it clear to whom or what the modifier refers, as seen below.

  1. While I was driving to work, a car accident cause a traffic backup on the interstate.
  2. Since Emily was wishing for a new pair of shoes, she was unimpressed with the gift.

<h3>What is a dangling modifier?</h3>

A dangling modifier is simply a word or phrase that is supposed to modify another word in a sentence, but whose meaning is unclear. Dangling modifiers are usually a result of a missing subject. Take a look below:

  • Wishing for a nice dinner, Helen told her sister they should go out. --> Who is wishing for a nice dinner? Helen or her sister? This is a dangling modifier.

In the answers we provided above, the dangling modifiers "while driving to work" and "wishing for a new pair of shoes" have been changed. Notice that we added subjects to make it clear that they refer to "me" and to "Emily," respectively.

Which statement best describes the resolution of this story
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

There’s a saying in brain science based on the work of Donald Hebb: neurons that fire together, wire together. The more they fire together, the more they wire together. In essence, you develop psychological resources by having sustained and repeated experiences of them that are turned into durable changes in your brain. You become more grateful, confident, or determined by repeatedly installing experiences of gratitude, confidence, or determination. Similarly, you center yourself increasingly in the Responsive, green zone – with an underlying sense of peace, contentment, and love – by having and internalizing many experiences of safety, satisfaction, and connection.
