A dangling modifier is a phrase or clause that is not clearly or logically related to the word or words it modifies. The sentence "Still surviving today, the ancient Romans built many stone arch bridges" has a dangling modifier, because it seems like the ancient Romans are still surviving instead of the stone arch bridges. The correct revision is letter B, "The ancient Romans built many stone arch bridges that still survive today." In this sentence it is clear that the writer is saying that the stone arch bridges still survive and not the ancient Romans. Revisions A, C, and D do not make sense as they still suggest the ancient Romans still survive.

Hello. You left the question incomplete. Here is the continuation:

... these colonies of tiny organisms would not last. In fact, we’d be lucky if they lasted 5 more years. She cared about the safety of these coral reefs more than she has cared about anything for a long, long time. She had to do something for the fragile, endangered habitat with its fish, mollusks, worms, crustaceans and many more.

So, she used her money to create a lab at her aunt’s house. She worked tirelessly—endlessly—sleeping only when she had to.

“It’s what mom and dad would have done,” she thought.

Her best friend Sam, would hang out with her everyday—eating pizza, fries, and whatever else he could get his hands on, keeping her company with his humor while Sophie worked on her experiments. And now, she has a biological solution in her hands.

She hesitated at the door to the labs. Nervously, she shifted her lab report from one hand to the other.

“I know that have an innovative approach to solving the coral reef issue and I know I can help,” she said to no one.

The image of being ridiculed by these professors, delayed her entry. She stood outside the door, wanting to run back- wanting to hide- glued to the icy spot.

“Hey, Sophie!” She turned at the unexpected sound of Sam’s voice.

“I’ve been… trying to catch up with you,” he panted- out of breath. “Let’s go in and… show them… what you’ve got.”

Sophie tilted her head, smiled at Sam and opened the door. She walked confidently to the front, laid out her research on the podium and began her presentation. When her presentation ended, it was to the enthusiastic sound of the scientists’ applause.
