Answer:

c. Covered in chocolate, our guests enjoyed freshly picked strawberries.

Explanation:

Misplaced modifiers are those groups of words or phrases that are put in a sentence but do not modify the intended word. Rather, they are placed in such a way that they seem to modify an unintended thing which makes the whole sentence seem awkward.

The misplaced modifier in the given options is seen in option c where the modifier<em> "covered in chocolate"</em> is used in such a way that it seems to modify the "<em>guests</em>" rather than the intended "<em>strawberries</em>'. This makes the sentence seem like the guests were covered in chocolate and not the strawberries.

Thus, the sentence with the misplaced modifier is option c.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

A dictionary, by definition is a book or electronic resource that lists the words of a language, typically in alphabetical order and states their meaning and often provides information about pronunciation, roots, origin and usage. On the other hand a thesaurus is a book that lists words in groups of synonyms and related concepts. A dictionary is often used to find how to spell a word or what the definition of the word is, a thesaurus is used to find synonym and antonyms.

(I don't know if its 50 words or not, but I hope it helps!)
