The sentence that contains a misplaced modifier is C) With a jump and a meow, the doorbell rang, and the kitten leaped off the couch.
The way this sentence is written, it would seem that the doorbell rang with a jump and a meow, and not the kitten.

The correct answer is C. With a jump and a meow, the doorbell rang, and the kitten leaped off the couch. 

In this sentence, since the words "with a jump and a meow" describes the kitten, it should be placed after that phrase. So the sentence should be: The doorbell rang and the kitten leaped off the couch with a jump and a meow.

My question is what is the best way to identify the type of phrases within a sentence? and how to learn it as quick as possible?
Ganezh [65]
1. gerund phrase - the verbal ending in -ing that is used as a noun is called a gerund
2. verb phrase - just a regular verb and all of the words surrounding it
3. adverb phrase - functions the same way as an adverb, which means that it answers questions such as when, where, why, how, etc.
4. participial phrase - although a participle looks the same as a gerund, it is never used as a noun, but rather as an adjective, or adverb
