Answer:
The LEAST effective substitution for the word ’calm’ in the sentence labeled (2) is "quiet"
Explanation:
The least effective substitution from the given options is quiet, due to its simple meaning about the intention of the full sentence "His calm performances encouraged the Marines to adopt seven other wild horses." this sentence talks about the general behavior of the horse and quiet mostly refers to the noise that is produced, while the other has a wider use depending on the context.
C) The bookshelves swayed with the weight of their load.
A dangling modifier is a description that seems to be connected to the wrong noun grammatically. Sometimes they are hard to spot since our brains make the connection for us, but if you read the sentence exactly as it is, you will notice it. Option A is wrong because the modifier is "feeling anxious", but we don't know who or what is feeling anxious. Our brains know that it is the person who is having to hold still, but there is no person in the sentence. Option B is not correct because the modifier "screaming" is close to the noun "raft" in the sentence. We know that a raft cannot scream therefore the modifier is not in the right place. Option D's modifier is "missing my family". In the sentence the modifier seems to be modifying dormitory, but this doesn't make sense since a dormitory doesn't have a family or the capability to miss one.
The correct answer is D. All of the above
Explanation:
In writing, visualizing a sequence of events means the author of the text uses descriptions and linking words that indicate the time to explains two or more events that are related. This allows writers to connect events during time and develop a story appropriately.
All the options presented are examples of this because in these authors explain events during time using descriptions and words that indicate time, for example in "Early in the morning, shortly after dawn, while was still dreaming, would disappear" the author uses the words "early" and "shortly after" to relate the experiences of a character in different moments of the day. This also occurs in "He went to bed before dusk and sleep" and "Then he began to hear sounds. Peculiar sounds" because the words "then" and "before" shows the relationship between two events during time.
