The misplaced modifier should follow the word red ink

The answer is:

<u>Misplaced modifier:</u> in red ink

<u>Word it should follow:</u> marked

The revised version of the sentence is the following:

<em>He had carefully marked in red ink the places we were to watch for on the map.</em>

Misplaced of dangling modifiers are words or phrases that are wrongly located and cause confusion, ambiguity or nonsense. In the original sentence, the misplaced modifier "in red ink" created complexity and disorientation. As a consequence, it should follow the verb and precede the direct object it modifies.

Read the excerpt below (from Henry Adams' The Education of Henry Adams) with accuracy and fluency. Discuss any unfamiliar words
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

This is a personal question. I will answer below according to the word that was unfamiliar to me, but feel free to add to the answer in case there were more for you.

Answer and Explanation:

The word that I found unfamiliar and whose meaning I did not know at first was "behest". I had never seen that word before. To understand its meaning, I looked for context clues. <u>The rest of the sentence in which "behest" appears functions as a clue to finding its meaning. It says that, at a person's behest, something happened: "the Exhibition dropped its superfluous rags and stripped itself. . ." As soon as I read this part, it made me think of the word "command." For instance, the sentence "At the general's command, the troops advanced" has a similar connotation to the one with "behest".</u>

To confirm my assumptions, I looked the word up online and found it indeed means "order" or "command".

Sphinxa [80]

Explanation:

You can use different sentence openers, like 'preposition', 'ly', 'ing', 'wwwasiab', 'Very short sentence', 'ed', 'Abstract noun opener'. I think these are good sentence openers, they make your paragraph go more interesting.

As for the hook, you should not reveal the title you are suppose to be writing about. For ex. I am supposed to be writing tsunamis. I don't write 'tsunami' as the topic. I'll write 'Destructive waves'. That'll usually hook the reader.

The primary source, you should go online and search your 'www/ (your topic)! That would give you a bunch of information. Then you can open one of the websites and chose a good part then put quotations around it then put it in your passage.

Another one is you should use five sense words (taste, smell, sound, sight, touch), you can search online for them.

The last one, (I don't recommend this, cause it's like cheating) search 'EssayTyper' on g oogle, and type the topic in it, and it usually writes you a nice pretty passage. (P.S If you use this, you should probably change the sentences and stuff, then it doesn't really count as cheating)

SORRY, But I am in class, so I don't have time to write a passage, I am not that good either! I just hoped I helped you!
