Answer:

B) Laughing uproariously, the little girls ran away from the group of boys they'd just attacked with water balloons.

Explanation:

Participle phrases work as adjectives: they start with -<em>ing </em>if it is a present participle, and they begin with a past participle form if it refers to the past. In this case, the participle phrase is<em> laughing uproariously</em>, which provides characterization to the sentence.

Answer:

I do not share FitzGerald's concern

Explanation: I don't share FitzGerald's concern because I think history is always evolving, there are always new studies that reveal discoveries about ancient history that before were unknown, which make us change our concept about what really happened in that particular moment in time. Every event changes along we study it further. I think the process of history education must change as new perspectives on past events are discovered, this is in constant evolution and we should always be aware of that.
