Young even being children is the answer
Answer:
Let's discuss the meaning of these modifiers first.
A misplaced modifier, as the name suggests, is a word that modifies the wrong word, thus changing the meaning of the sentence (An old child's shirt was used to stop the bleeding - this would suggest that a shirt belonged to an old child, which is highly unlikely. Correct way to say this is A child's old shirt was used...)
A dangling modifier is a modifier that can not be logically connected to the word it modifies, most often because the word it modifies is left out of the sentence (When five years old, my mom remarried - it would be absurd if someone married, let alone remarried at the age of five. This modifier lacks the word it modifies: when I was five years old, my mom remarried).
We can conclude that the correct way to revise these sentences is to change a modifier's place (if misplaced) or add its modifying word (if dangling).
In our example, we see that the map was useless because someone (possibly the reader) was confused by its symbols. However, the confused reader is left out of this sentence, so it might seem as if the map was confused, which is highly illogical.
So, this is an example of a <em>dangling modifier</em> and the best way to revise this sentence is to add a missing modifying word.
"Since Jack was confused by the symbols, the map was useless" could be one of the correct revisions.
When you're arguing you want to make your point as objective as possible, for this you have to be impartial so that your proof is strong.
Comparing the opposite side's views to something unpleasant is useless since this kind of comparison holds no proof that your argument is true. <em>Incorrect</em>
If you include only general details the audience will understand, you might not be able to communicate the specific points of your argument, therefore you wouldn't be able to prove it is accurate. <em>Incorrect</em>
To make your argument effective you have to use specific details to refute the opposite side's views. That way you'll present the specific points in which your argument will stand, you will communicate logical and objective ideas about your argument and they will work to prove it. <u><em>Correct</em></u>
If you appeal to emotion, your argument will be subject to possible biases since the way a person or group feels towards something doesn't prove it right or wrong. <em>Incorrect</em>
Fiction is fantasy, make believe, not based on anything really true. There are branches of fiction, but this is just for the general fiction category.
Nonfiction is based on true facts. Bibliography's, autobiographies, newspapers and more are examples of nonfiction
A is a newspaper, so it's nonfiction
B is also nonfiction, as a biography is the story of one's life, all true events
C is directions. They tell you where to go, so it's nonfiction I suppose
D. Novels are generally FICTION, there ARE nonfiction novels, but this is your correct answer.
