By this quote, Daisy means that it is better for her daughter to be foolish and beautiful instead of smart and aware of everything going wrong in her life. Daisy is foolish in the way that she ignores the obvious signs of Tom cheating and everything he does to her. The correct answer should be A because the whole point of the quote is that Daisy thinks it is better to be foolish and not know than to know that you are being fooled.

Analyze the map below and answer the question that follows.
kupik [55]

Haiti and Cuba are two countries located on Hispaniola, the island labeled with the number 3 on the map above.

Option B. Haiti and Cuba.

Each kasike was ruled by a kasike (chief). Christopher Columbus renamed the island Espanola (Hispanola), which means "little Spain". On December 5, 1492, Columbus anchored off the northern coast of Haiti near present-day Capacity.

Hispaniola's political divisions are partly due to European struggles for control of the New World when France and Spain began competing for control of the island in the 17th century. They settled the dispute in 1697 by dividing the island into her two colonies.

Hispaniola, La Espanola, her second largest island in the Spanish West Indies, is located in the Greater Antilles in the Caribbean Sea. Politically, it is divided between the Haiti Republic (west) and the Dominican Republic (east).

Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier?
kkurt [141]

The correct answer is D. Yesterday, my dad walked the dog in his suit and tie

Explanation:

In grammar, a modifier is a word or set of words that describe the way some object, person, animal or idea is, that is usually placed before the noun or shortly after it. A misplaced modifier occurs when an adjective or phrase that modifies or describes a noun (modifier) is separated from the noun it modifies, which creates a confuse and strange meaning in the sentence as the modifier can be incorrectly associate to a different noun to the one that it actually modifies. This is a common grammar mistake that consists of the modifier being misplaced or in the wrong place in the sentence.

Considering the previous ideas, the sentence that contains a misplaced modifier is "Yesterday, my dad walked the dog in his suit and tie" as the modifier "in his suit and tie" that describes "my dad" has been separated from the noun it describes and placed at the end of the sentence which creates a confusing meaning as it seems the dog is the one wearing a suit and a tie. Thus, as in this sentence, the modifier is not in the correct place there is a misplaced modifier.
