A word or phrase that modifies a word not included in the sentence is a dangling modifier.
Here is an example:
<em /><em>Hungry, the leftover pizza was devoured.
</em><em />You can see that the word <em>hungry </em>refers to <em>us, </em>but <em>us </em>is not included in the sentence. The way it is written, it would seem that <em>hungry </em>refers to <em>pizza, </em>which is wrong.
To be there for that person or friend to be compassionate
Answer: c. looked / was searching
Explanation:
<em>When I first got off the plane, I </em><em><u>looked</u></em><em> around as if in a fog. I </em><em><u>was searching</u></em><em> for my classmates. </em>
The sentence started with the past tense being used by the narrator. As such, the rest of the narration has to be in past tense as well.
With this in mind, the word <em>looked</em> and the phrase <em>was searching</em> would be the right words to use to fill in the blanks.
The Canterbury Cathedral is related to Thomas a Becket because Becket was murdered there. Henry II made Becket his chancellor and the two became close friends. When the position of Archbishop became vacant, Henry II made Thomas a Becket the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Henry II wanted to reduce the power of the Church and established the Constitutions of Clarendon which allowed the King to punish a cleric found guilty by the Church. Becket refused to sign the Constitutions of Clarendon and was found guilty of treason. He fled to France and was only allowed to return when the Pope threatened to excommunicate Henry II. Upon his return, Becket excommunicated three bishops who supported Henry. This enraged Henry and he ordered his knights to kill Becket.
On December 29, 1170, Becket was murdered at the altar of Canterbury Cathedral by four knights of King Henry II.
