The revision that corrects the dangling modifier is option B) "While I was riding my bike, a raccoon crossed the street."

Dangling modifiers are mistakes in sentences when it is not clear what the modifier is modifying.

In this case, the rest of the options provided are cases of dangling modifiers since it is not clear who is riding the bike (The raccoon is riding my bike?).  

Dangling modifiers should be avoided as they create confusion in the reader.

How has writing impacted your life and how do you think others can benefit from writing more ?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Jason Fried says in his book Rework that in Basecamp, company in which he is co-founder and CEO, one of the abilities that they are interested in when hiring people is their writing ability, no matter if they are sales people, programmers, or designers. The reason is simple: Clear writing is a sign of clear thinking. Good writers know how to communicate, they make things easy to understand and they know when to leave out the unnecessary.

Does this mean that you have to attend literature and grammar classes to be more effective when carrying out your tasks? No, you already have all the necessary knowledge. You learn how to write by writing. If you get used to express this way your ideas, feelings, goals, etc., you will achieve important benefits:

You will communicate with clarity. Unlike talking, when you write you look for more sophisticated words and expressions to describe what you have in mind. This helps you build a structure that will allow you to express yourself better and communicate complex ideas in a much more effective way.

You will eliminate stress. In the same way as in GTD you empty your mind—by capturing everything that comes to it—in order to eliminate the stress that causes having many things hitting your head, writing and developing your ideas produces an amplified effect since not only you take them out of your mind but also the whole process of rationalization that otherwise would abstractly stay in there.

You will be more productive. Writing activates the neurons in your brain and gets it ready to overcome the rest of the tasks (you can use it as a kind of warm-up at the beginning of the day). In addition, writing down your tasks with the appropriate words prepares you to carry them out properly. Finally, it’s demonstrated that setting your goals in writing increases significantly the possibilities of achieving them.

Which tone does the phrase “for the thousandth time i WILL” best suggest
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

[See Below]

Explanation:

It could be purposeful and angry, but since you capitalized will it seems more of angry then purposeful. It like the person is saying "Ok, I'll get to it just leave me alone" whereas purposeful would be more like, "Alright, I'll do it right right now."

So B, Angry.
