1During WWII, officials from the U.S. War Department encouraged urban dwellers to use any available space to plant victory garde

ns. As the war continued, the price of fruits and vegetables skyrocketed. Small vegetable and fruit gardens helped reduce the pressure on the public food supply. By eating the vegetables grown in their gardens, citizens were able to decrease the cost of produce needed to help feed the troops. The city gardens grown on apartment building rooftops and in vacant lots produced forty percent of the vegetables consumed each year. Once the war ended, many people abandoned their gardens and returned to grocery stores to purchase their produce.
2Today, a resurgence in urban agriculture is sweeping across the nation. Many modern concerns have contributed to the recent popularity of city farms. One of the most pressing issues is the high cost of oil and gas. The ingredients used to prepare most meals travel an average of forty-five miles each before reaching the local supermarket. In times when gas costs upwards of four dollars per gallon, buying locally helps offset the expense of transportation. This helps reduce the overall cost of produce for everyone. City farms also address growing concern over carbon dioxide emissions that contribute to global warming. Purchasing locally grown foods can help reduce a city’s carbon footprint.

Answer:

If I were to print this selection and jot down notes in the margins, <em>this would be an example of annotating text.</em>

Explanation:

A text annotation is a <u>practice of adding a note to a text</u>. These notes may include comments, footnotes, etc. These notes <em>will probably help the reader with the understanding of the text or even to improve the work</em> if we are the author and the text is a draft and we are adding things in the margen that we think are missing from the text and would make it better and more complete.

Which sentence contains a dangling modifier? A.The angry matriarch could not break down the door carved from solid oak. B.Having
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Your answer would be D.

Explanation:

The sentence that contains a dangling modifier is D. A dangling modifier is a word or phrase that modifies a word not clearly stated in the sentence. In the sentence above, "preparing for the experiment" is a present participle expressing an action but does not name the doer of the action. In English sentences, the doer of the action must be the subject of the main sentence. However, the doer of the action is not "several slides" (the subject of the main clause). Slides do not have volition, so they can't prepare an experiment.

As the doer of the action is not clearly stated, the participle phrase is said to be dangling. Consequently, you should name the appropriate or logical doer of the action as the subject of the main clause. In this case, it could be an NP such as "the scientist" or you can turn the whole sentence into a when clause --> When the scientist was preparing the experiment, several slides...
