The correct answer is D. As it glowed in the sky, the wolf howled at the moon.

Explanation:

In grammar, a misplaced modifier occurs when a word or set of words that describe or modify a noun such as an adjective, adverb or modifier phrase is placed incorrectly as it is separated from the word it modifies, which lead to a strange or confusing construction. Considering this, from the options provided the sentence with a misplaced modifier is "As it glowed in the sky, the wolf howled at the moon" because in this sentence the modifier that describes the moon is "As it glowed in the sky" but this has been incorrectly separated from "moon" and placed beside "the wolf" which creates  a strange construction as it seems it is the wolf the one glowing in the sky, this mistake can be corrected by placing the modifier correctly as "As the moon glowed in the sky, the wolf howled at it".

What is the effect of the structure on the poem "She Walks in Beauty" by Lord Byron?

Question 5 options:

By establishing a rather basic rhyme scheme in the poem, Byron is able to suggest the speaker's lack of complexity.

By organizing the poem into three short and even stanzas, Byron is able to convey the work's themes directly and succinctly.

By giving the poem an even and steady meter, Byron makes the speaker's great excitement even more obvious.

By breaking the poem into three stanzas, Byron allows readers to follow along as the speaker describes three different women.

BTW your answer is C : They show the speaker's feelings and behavior at the start of her marriage, when she was young and less mature.
