Attacked by the school bully, the backpack fell from Abner's shoulder - dangling modifier

Answer:

1. Phrase: her daughter

2. Dangling modifier: Attacked by the school bully, the backpack fell from Abner’s shoulder.

3. Clause: Susie likes ice cream

Explanation:

1. A phrase is a group of words that stand together as a single unit, that does not contain either a subject or a verb, and therefore, it has to be part of a sentence so that it could make sense. "her daughter" has a possessive pronoun and a noun and it needs to be included in a  sentence to make sense, so it is a phrase.

2. A dangling modifier is a modifier that does not clearly state the object it modifies, thus it makes the sentence or the idea confusing. In the sentence,   "Attacked by the school bully" is the modifier (it describes the state or situation of a person). The following clause should have the object it modifies, more specifically, it should clearly state WHO was attacked by the school bully, but it does not, that object is not clear: the backpack fell from Abner's shoulder, but was Abner the one that got attacked, or the school bully? Thus, the sentence has a dangling modifier.

3. A clause is a group of related words that have a subject and a verb. And they may or may not be able to stand on its own, depending on whether they express a complete thought or not. "Susie likes ice cream" has all those characteristics: it has a subject (<em>Susie</em>) and a verb (<em>like</em>) and it does express a complete thought, thus it is an independent clause.

What major topic do both Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Philosophy of Composition” and Stephen King’s On Writing address?
sergij07 [2.7K]
<span>The topic that both Edgar Allan Poe's The Philosophy of Composition and Stephen King's On Writing address is the writer's craft. Both of these essays have to do with good writing, and the characteristis of writers who write good literary works, and some pieces of advice on what the could do to become even better. Poe's essay also has a detailed description of how he wrote The Raven, and the intricacies of rhyme, meter, theme, figures of speech are all laid out there. </span>

Select the active voice verb below. (Karen Filippeli will complete in the chess tournament next week.)
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Compete

Explanation:

I am assuming "complete" was a typo and that the word "compete" is what you meant. In this case, compete is an active voice vers, because it is a verb that a subject is performing.

Active voice verbs are the opposite of passive voice verbs. Passive voice verbs are verbs that are done to the subject, as opposed to the subject doing them.
