Analyze the sentence to determine whether it contains a dangling construction or is written correctly.

English

antoniya [11.8K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: The sentence was not properly written, because it contain dangling construction.

Explanation: This sentence was poorly constructed because while constructing a sentence we should be careful with starting with verb that ends with 'ing'. In this case "Tripping " is a dangling modifier. A dangling modifier occurs when a statement does not have a clear subject.

The correct statement should have been "while the thief was escaping he tripped at the entrance of the bank, the money dropped before he left the crime scene.

"Be HOLD/ how LIKE/ a MAID/ she BLUSH/ es HERE"

This excerpt is an example of iambic pentameter.

An iambic pentameter is a form of a metrical line in which each line contains five unstressed syllables followed by five stressed syllables. They are usually arranged in an alternating pattern.

Shakespeare followed a new tradition of using blank verse in iambic pentameter. He used this form in his writings as it followed the same tone as that of a human’s heartbeat, a horse’ gallop or with the beat of any music. Iambic pentameter added natural speech and the rhythm of life in his verses.
