Answers: 1- A. Occured. 2- A. Solely. 3- B. Ordinary.

1) I pressed start and then a strange silence, not a steady, busy hum, ensued.

What is the meaning of the word ensued as it is used in this sentence?

The meaning of "ensued " as used in the sentence is "occurred". Ensued means to "occur" or "take place"

2) What connotation does exclusively have, as it is used in the following sentence from "Everyday Things"? This way, American manufacturers let their buyers know that they used Chinese graphite exclusively.

"exclusively" means "solely", which means "only involving", or "involving nothing else", solely, as exclusively means limited, or not to something else.

3) What is the connotation of mundane as it is used in the following sentence from "Everyday Things"? It is amazing how such a tradition has a profound effect on something as mundane, yet important, as pencil production.

"Mundane" literally means "ordinary" or "normal".

HELP!!
Sloan [31]

The correct answer is D) Finding the baby bird on the ground, Maya returned it to its nest.


A modifier refers to a phrase or unit of a sentence that gives more information about, or describes something or someone. Options A, B, C do not use modifiers correctly, because the modifiers are misplaced. This means that it is difficult to tell what the modifier is referring to. For instance, in Option B: "Gazing up in wonder, the mountains looked enormous" it is unclear who is "gazing up in wonder". Option D is correct because it is clear that Maya is the one who found a baby bird on the ground.
