To understand how to figure misplaced / dangling modifiers, we must first understand the message that the sentence is trying to convey to us. So let us take a look at the answer choices:
A. The veterinarian, found in the woods with a broken leg, offered to help the dog.
Was the veterinarian found in the woods with a broken leg? And if so, by whom? And if they had a broken leg, why are they concerned with helping the dog, who seems to be fine?
I do not think that answer A is the right choice, so let's move on.
B. Found in the woods, the veterinarian offered to help the dog with a broken leg.
Aha, at least now the dog has something that requires the help of the veterinarian. But why is the veterinarian being found in the woods? Is he some sort of hermit?
Probably not. Moving on!
C. Found in the woods with a broken leg, the veterinarian offered to help the dog.
Now, we are completely stumped as to what was found in the woods with a broken leg. Because it's unclear, we can dismiss it as an option choice.
D. The veterinarian offered to help the dog found in the woods with a broken leg.
NOW we're onto something! The dog was found in the woods with a broken leg, and the veterinarian offered to help. From the looks of things, this makes the most sense, and therefore, option D is the correct answer.
Hope that helped! =)

Answer:
C. Metaphors.
Explanation:
<em>'Litany' by Billy Collins is a love poem containing a series of ordinary and extra-ordinary metaphors.</em> The metaphorical comparisons employed by the poet makes it a light- hearted poem with a profound directive to humanity. <em>The poet begins with the metaphors like 'bread and knife', 'goblet and wine', ''dew on morning grass', 'burning wheel of sun', 'white apron of the baker', 'marsh birds' and many more to describe and compare his beloved while he concludes it by himself comparing to the "moon in the trees' and 'blind woman's tea cup'.</em> The entire poem is a chain of metaphorical analogies and symbolizes his praise and admiration for his beloved.
