<span>In the 1st half of the 20th century, there were 2 World Wars. Because of that the poetry contains more emotion, so the poetry in that period is a lot heavier.

Write one paragraph about this theme novel. Violence can happen when you least expect it.
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Parrot in the Oven by Victor Martinez is a story told by a teenage Mexican American boy, Manny, who is attempting to find his place in a society full of disappointment. It is a story highly influenced by the race and culture of its protagonist. The crises and problems that Manny experiences like love, violence, sibling conflicts, gangs, family problems, and money shortage, are universal obstacles in teenage life. Set in the projects, Manny gives a very realistic account of what it is like to grow up as a minority in a poor, dysfunctional home. Receiving no real direction from his family, Manny battles with what type of man he should and will become.

            He is tempted by gang life, but at the same time, he seems to have a pure heart that prohibits him from falling too far. This is how life is spent everyday for a Latino boy like Manual Hernandez. Each and every day Manny learned something new about his family, and how to deal with the constant situations. He joined the gang thinking that they're going to be his family, it's good for him, and it can help him with his problems. Victor Martinez writes about a poor, destitute family, and how a little boy tries to live his own lifestyles. He was put in a position to do things he wouldn't normally do. When Eddie, one of the leaders of the gang, decides to steal an innocent lady's purse, Manual is suddenly confuses as to rather go with Eddie or do the right thing. Manual decides to do the right thing, and not go along with Eddie, and the reader is left with a relieving feeling. Victor's writing stays with you all throughout the book, and yet it seems to never leave. Victor Martinez puts hard, struggling emotions into his writing, and it takes his readers to another level.

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.
