Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.

English

scoundrel [369]3 years ago

Answer:

Samantha said she would write a letter to the pastor during winter break.

Explanation:

Samantha said she would write a letter to the pastor during winter break. The original sentence “Samantha said during winter break she would write a letter to the pastor” is wrong because it has a <u>misplaced modifier</u>, which is “during winter break”. By placing it after Samantha, it can be interpreted that it was during winter break that she said that, when the intended meaning is that she is actually writing the letter during winter break. A misplaced modifier can change the meaning of a sentence, or make it illogical.

In bud not buddy why did bud get on the train
chubhunter [2.5K]
Out of character, Bud forgets to place the blue flyer back in his case and that's what keeps him from hopping the train. The stones and their strange code seem obvious to the reader as places where Bud's mother may have been with his father. The police burn down Hooverville, which forces Bud to head back to Flint.

Read the excerpt from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe".
Ipatiy [6.2K]

The statement that best describes how the pace of the excerpt creates tension is: Pyramus’s long speech slows the pace to prolong suspense.

The speech, describing Pyramus's thoughts on her death and how guilty he feels about it, even going so far as to wish and call for his own death at the teeth of lions, creates tension by making the suspense of what will happen next last longer.
