It is D because once the heavy dark cloud is rushing in from the horizon it means the storm is coming in

Illusion [34]3 years ago
3 0

The revision that corrects the sentence is D) Heavy, black clouds rushing in from the horizon mean a storm is coming.

The sentence is incorrect because it is incomplete. "Heavy, black clouds rushing in from the horizon" is only the subject of the sentence; therefore, it must be followed by a verb. "Rushing in from the horizon" is not the predicate of the sentence but a participial phrase working as an adjective modifying the noun "clouds". Therefore, option D) is correct because it is the only one that provides a predicate for the incomplete sentence ("mean a storm is coming").  On the other hand, option A), B) and C) leave the sentence incomplete and add another sentence (in the case of A. and B.) or a subordinate clause instead (introduced by "when" in C.).

Little Dorrit Charles Dickens Read the following excerpt from the novel: Chapter 1: Sun and Shadow Thirty years ago, Marseilles
Phoenix [80]

"Descendants from all the builders of Babel, come to trade at Marseilles, sought the shade alike—taking refuge in any hiding-place from a sea too intensely blue to be looked at, and a sky of purple, set with one great flaming jewel of fire"

In this line you can see Marseilles as a place were people suffers. A place too hot to even stare at things as the sun reflection blinds you. The only thing that merely conforts them is seeking for shadow. By the term Babel we know that everyone is form a different place and speak different languages making comunication very difficult. It seems as a place were no one wants to be more than necessary . The sun is described as great flaming jewel of fire, meaning it is extremely hot in there. As you can realize, it is not possible to be confortable in a place like that. As you read you even fell inconfortable.
