The correct answer is option b. Upon hearing the fire engines, the apartment building was evacuated.
A dangling modifier is a type of modifier that describes a word or phrase that is not clearly stated in the sentence, making the meaning of a sentence unclear. The sentence 'Upon hearing the fire engines, the apartment building was evacuated.' does not specify who heard the fire engines. In fact, there is nothing in the sentence to which the modifying phrase 'Upon hearing the fire engines' can refer; consequently, it is a dangling modifier.

When Antony says D. I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him, that sentence anticipates the crowd's hostile reaction to Caesar.
Initially, they all loved Caesar, but over time, it turned out that his rule was weakening and that he was actually taking Rome down with him. This is something that Brutus didn't want to happen, so he had Caesar killed, even though he loved him as his best friend. These sentences are from Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar.
The correct answer is bank vaults as stated in Alan Weisman's book <em>"The world without us"</em> when he tries to depict the New York city scenery long after humans have disappeared from the earth.
