A dangling modifier is a type of a modifier which is placed incorrectly or the noun it is supposed to modify isn't clearly stated in the sentence.
Having this in mind, the sentence which contains a dangling modifier is A. Playing with the children, it was obvious they had a good time.

It should be rewritten somehow to say: It was obvious they had a good time playing with the children.

The correct answers are:

New uses for vocabulary develop over the course of time.

Increased access to computers helped spread the knowledge and use of technical language.

The history of the English language is complex.

Formal and objective language is less personal style of writing, so the personal pronouns and verb forms are mostly avoided, as opposed to the informal language. It is used when writing for professional or academic purposes, like university paper assignments, research etc.

In 2–3 complete sentences, thoroughly explain the protagonist's main motivation or goal in your Module One short story? What doe

Dafna11 [192]

In the short story "Condensed Milk," by Russian author Varlam Shalamov (1907-1982), the protagonist appears to have two main motivations: hunger and revenge.

The protagonist's name is never revealed. He is a prisoner at a Gulag, a Russian forced-labor camp. He is sick from exhaustion and starvation, and emotionally dulled to the lack of empathy and dignity of his condition.

When another prisoner, who is treated much better than the protagonist, offers him a chance to escape, the protagonist almost immediately realizes the whole thing is a trap. He lies to the man, tells him he agrees with escaping as long as he is brought some condensed milk to eat. At this moment, hunger seems to be the main motivation:

I fell asleep and in my ragged hungry dreams saw Shestakov's can of condensed milk, a monstrous can with sky-blue label.

When he is brought two cans, the protagonist drinks their contents to only then reveal he does not intend to participate in the plan. This where we find out about his need for revenge. He knows Shestakov is a traitor:

It was, of course, a weak, worthless act of vengeance just like all my feelings.

NOTE: I know the question asks only for two or three sentences, but I found it important to add context to the answer. Feel free to edit and shorten it.
