English
2 answers:
Alik [6]3 years ago

When Jem is first told by Scout that there was gum in the tree, he immediately assumed the gum was poisoned, just because it was near the Radley's house. However, after walking (running) past the house multiple times on their way home from school he came to the conclusion that the tree was someone's hiding place. He figured there was probably some scrawny kid, who hid his stuff there on the way home, that way the bullies wouldn't take it. He thought this because of the multiple items they found in the tree, which ranged from gum, to a watch, and even coins.

Identify the dangling modifier in the sentences. Attacked by the school bully, the backpack fell from Abner's shoulder. When Ama
pychu [463]

Answer:

  • Attacked by the school bully,
  • Slipping on the wet sidewalk,

Explanation:

Dangling modifiers occur when the modifiers are far from the object they modify. As a result, the meaning of the sentence is confusing, obscure, ambiguous or senseless.

In the first sentence, it is unclear to deduce whether the backpack or Abner were attacked by the school bully. Thus, the right version could be:

<em>The backpack fell from Abner's shoulder when he was attacked by the school bully</em>.

In the third sentence, it is not precise to figure out whether Amaury or the keys were slipping on the wet sidewalk. As a result, the modifier should be placed closer to the modified object, as it stated in the second sentence:

<em>When Amaury slipped on the wet sidewalk, the keys fell from his pocket.</em>
