The dangling modifier is "Running around the building, the bushes..." This means that the BUSHES are running around the building since whatever comes after the modifier is modified. However, we want the sentence to mean that the girl is running around the building, not the bushes. Therefore, we can rewrite the sentence in a way where the girl comes immediately after the modifier instead of the bushes. 

For example, "Running around the building, she was nearly blocked by the bushes." The pronoun "she" comes right after the modifier, which fixes the dangling modifier.

Hope I helped :)

The correct in-text citation of this quote from page 1 of Saki's story is C. (Saki, 1).

<h3>What is an In-Text Citation?</h3>

This refers to the quotations made to make references to the intellectual property of an author as this shows that adequate credit is given to the author.

Hence, we can see that from the given story, it is told that Saki personifies nature when he says, "a deed of Nature's own violence overwhelmed them"

Therefore, the correct in-text citation of this quote from page 1 of Saki's story is C. (Saki, 1).

postnew [5]
This excerpt could be considered humorous because of the way in which the events are retell and because of the choice of words. their arrival is portrayed in such a way that the reader might think, it could have a deeper meaning. For example
"<span>It regarded us a while without curiosity but with caution, and after we were seen to be harmless" This might be understood as a fun way of expressing that people were all over them, to check who they were, they pay close attention to these "new people" until they were convinced they are fine. </span>

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

C. a well-told story should have no need for subsequent discussion

Explanation:

When a person tells a story in a presentation, it is false that a well-told story should not have need for further discussions.

No matter how good a story is or how well it is explained, there should always be room for further discussion, either in form of asking questions for clarity or discussing some points in the story.
