Airida [17]3 years ago

This particular excerpt makes part of the bigger poem "The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls", written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow between 1807 and 1822. In essence, this particular poem makes reference to the process of life, death and rebirth, through the image of the ocean, its movements, its activities and its effects on life. The poem is short, only three stanzas long, and most of it shows the sadness of life as it comes and then ebbs away, marking with it the time limitation on life.

In this particular excerpt of the poem, Longfellow is making reference to how natural events, like the flow of the sea, affect human beings, their lives, and links the two things, human life, and nature, by giving an almost human characteristic to the ebb and flow of the sea. This is why, the correct answer here is B: Human beings are challenged by events in the natural world.

In the story, the narrator and people in their world can only visit the real tree for a short
ratelena [41]

Answer:

understand and educate ourselves how important nature is to all living beings on Earth.

Explanation:

The benefits of preserving the nature is bigger than the costs of preserving nature. All we need to do is understand and educate ourselves how important nature is to all living beings on Earth. Preserving the nature would mean that there would be a healthy Earth for all generations to come in the future. There would be clean air, beautiful landscapes and cool breeze on Earth.

As predicted by researchers, Earth will not last for another hundred years if we keep on polluting and harming it. The time has come to take big measures and preserve the nature. Every individual is responsible in this task and all we need is a commitment to build an environmental friendly world.

Just as the story, if our children never knew what a tree smelled like or felt like, it would be a devastating thing to accept. The beauty and presence of nature sustains our life and gives us inner peace and happiness. It is more than just a natural oxygen producer. It is the essence of life on Earth.

Which sentence is CORRECT and does not contain a dangling modifier? A) Driving for hours, the trip seemed endless. B) After a lo
Serjik [45]

Answer:

D) Before leaving for school, I decided to eat a good breakfast.

Explanation:

A modifier is a word or a phrase which, as the name suggests, modifies a certain word.

Dangling modifier is a modifier when its modifying word is left out of the sentence, making it sound confusing.

On the other hand, a misplaced modifier is a modifier modifying the wrong worg, changing the meaning of the sentance.

In sentence A), the subject of the sentence (the one who drives) is left out, so we may be led to think that the trip was driving, which is, of course, completely illogical.

In sentence B), again, we don't know who made a long run; it certainly wasn't the lemonade, as the sentence might suggest.

In sentence C), it is highly unlikely that the man's beard weighs 200 pounds; it modifies the beard instead of the man.

And, finally, sentence D) seems correct, there is a subject ( I ) who has to leave for school but decides to enjoy the breakfast first; no confusion whatsoever.
