A) Although Alcott worked hard to make money, she still made time to write.
I would say that A is the correct answer, since the first paragraph ends with a sentence about how Alcott worked to make money, and the second paragraph starts with a sentence about a book she had written.
The correct answer is B. "Andrew Brown's print shop smelled of ink and grease and the sweat of muscular apprentices carrying trays of lead type from the composing table to the printing press."
Explanation:
The novel Fever 1793 by Laurie Halse Anderson, focuses on telling the story of a female character called Matilda who faces multiple challenges as the yellow fever epidemic reached Philadelphia in 1793. This story includes some historical facts and it is told by the main character Matilda, which makes the story a first-person narration.
An example of these two features can be seen in the excerpt "Andrew Brown's print shop smelled of ink and grease and the sweat of muscular apprentices carrying trays of lead type from the composing table to the printing press" because, in this, Matilda describes the print shop of Andrew Brown who was a real writer and reported that opened a shop or publishing house in Philadelphia in 1793. This means the author included a historical fact by focusing on the real-life and influence of Andrew Brown.

The misplaced modifier in this sentence is D. filled with an assortment of cakes.
This is because, the way this sentence is written and due to the location of this modifier, it would seem that Josephine was filled with an assortment of cakes, and not the glass display case. This modifier needs to be moved in order for the sentence to be correct.
