The answer is: dangling modifier.
Dangling modifiers are separate from the word they modify, resulting in ambiguity, confusion or nonsense. In the example sentence, it is not clear which animal is walking the wire - whether the dog or the squirrel. Supposing the squirrel (which is about to fall) is walking the wire, a correct version of the sentence would be:
My dog waited for the squirrel to fall, which was walking the wire.
b. to honor and inspire
this is because he honors the people who died in the war and he inspires others to look back at the morals the country started with (liberty and all men would be created equal) and he does this to remind the people of who they are and who they should be.

Explanation:
According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:
a. to suggest the hopelessness of Zeitoun’s situation.
b. to illustrate the solitary existence endured by survivors.
c. to establish Zeitoun’s dedication.
d. to the rituals of his faith to reveal the military’s attempts at assistance.
In this passage, the author talks about the situation that Zeitoun (and many others) found himself in after Hurrican Katrina. We learn that everywhere he looked, Zeitoun could only see water. We also learn that this caused Zeitoun to think about tragic biblical stories. He could not find a trace of life, nor could he hear any sound besides the helicopter. This description is intended to suggest the hopelessness of Zeitoun's situation.
If there is no informal language like (wasn’t) or slang than it would be formal.
