The correct answer is 100% B

Answer: B

Explanation: The modifier "While walking along the beach" has to be followed by the subject modified by it, which should be the same subject that performs the action inside the modifier (in this case, walking). The structure is wrong in sentence B because the subject "a huge wave" is taking the place which the modifier affects. This kind of mistake could result in ambiguity if both subjects were capable of walking, but in this case, since waves don't walk, the outcome is nonsensical.

In babylon revisited why did fitzgerald chose the title to be metaphoric of paris
Snowcat [4.5K]
Here are a couple of options to choose from as to why Fitzgerald chose the title to be metaphoric of Paris:
1. <span>It represents the ruins of American "royalty" in Paris
2.</span><span> Paris is living in wealth that will end in destruction. 

In either case, it has to do with wealth that no longer exists or is about to be depleted because of overuse and hedonism. Just like Babylon disappeared, this place is going to be gone soon. </span>

Salsk061 [2.6K]
I don't know if I'm completely correct, so please don't get mad at me, but I do think that the answer is B. If you think about it, modern poetry has far fewer rules than it used to. Free verse has become a very popular form of poetry, and that is my reasoning. I hope this is helpful!
