Answer:
The correct answers are A and B.
A) It states how Van Lew acted as an important leader and manager at a time when women were generally discouraged from taking on those roles.
B) It shows that Van Lew was dedicated to a cause outside of her family and worked hard for her beliefs.
Explanation:
In the excerpt, the author develops two main ideas.
First, the author explains that Elizabeth Van Lew was a spymaster who was running a great network agents, couries and safe houses during the world war, which was not a common role for women in 19th century. She indeed played as an important leader and role model for women.
Secondly, the author suggests that Elizabeth Van Lew dedicated her life to being the leader because she believed in this cause. She even used her house for the duty and went past the family limitations which restricted the most women in that age.
Answer:
D. We took him to the store and then went to the library.
Explanation:
We took him to the store, and then went to the library.
Needs a comma after store.
I believe the correct answer is B. The modifier "wearing a blue dress" is placed far from the noun which is supposed to modify - Stacey. Such as it is, it could easily be attributed to another noun, the stage. It would seem that the stage was wearing a blue dress, rather than Stacey. This is easily fixable with a comma between "stage" and "wearing".
The C and D sentences are also a little bit awkward, but they don't contain a misplaced modifier.
The choices for this question can be found elsewhere and as follows:
A.)about supernatural beings.
B.)a tale of King Arthur’s knights.
C.) about an idealized hero.
D.) a tragic story of betrayed lovers.
I think the correct answer is option B. A medieval romance narrative in prose or poetry always tells a tale of King Arthur’s knights.
