Answer: stilted
Explanation: Tbh I searched the definition of “stilted”on the internet; it means “(of a manner of talking or writing) stiff and self-conscious or unnatural.” It wouldn’t be slang because slang means everyday talk. Vague means not thoroughly described. Cliché is used to describe a word, phrase, or event that is overused (ex. happily ever after, love at first sight)

A) It escalates the conflict by showing that, despite being very hungry, the boy's pride prevents him from accepting help.
Explanation:
A Glass of Milk is a story by an unknown author, which recounts the experience of a boy who is poor and hungry, yet he is ashamed of his situation and does not want to receive charity from others who offers him food. The sailor situation quote in the question refers to the beginning of the story, where the sailor offers the boy food, yet he declines it, saying he is not hungry despite the fact that he is. This exchange introduces the central conflict of the story.
Answer:
Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs
Explanation:
A misplaced modifier occurs when a word or a phrase is incorrectly placed in a sentence that separates it from the word it modifies, making the sentence have a different meaning.
Therefore, correcting the misplaced modifier in the sentence "We saw three lion cubs using binoculars", we change it to "Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs"
This is because, from the first sentence, it seems like the cubs were using binoculars, when in actual sense, it was the speaker that used binoculars to see the cubs.
