English

Mrrafil [7]3 years ago

Answer:

When we correct the misplaced modifier, the sentence becomes:

"Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs."

Explanation:

We can define modifiers as words or phrases which modify another word in a sentence, that is, which give information about that word. A misplaced modifier is one that is placed incorrectly in a sentence, changing its meaning or causing ambiguity.

<u>In the sentence we are analyzing here, the position of "using binoculars" makes it sound as if the lion cubs were the ones using the binoculars. This is a clear case of misplaced modifier, and all we need to do to correct it is place the modifier closer to the word it refers to, which is "we"</u>:

"Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs."

Explain the poetic. You don't have to feel like a waste of space
agasfer [191]
The words “You don’t have to feel like a waste of space” meaning that you yourself are worth something so you are not a waste. “You are original, cannot be replaced” it means you are the only one out there. Nobody is exactly like you, so if you disappear no replica can be made. “If you only knew what the future holds” means that there is a lot of potential for you and it gets better in the future. “After a hurricane comes a rainbow” meaning that it always gets worse before it gets better. So in all it starts from telling you, you are something and someone and to keep in mind that it will be worse but in the future the rainbow will show the light of how it gets better.

I hope I explained well~~~
