The correct answer is:  

B) Leaving the cottage, the happy couple made sure to lock the front door.

The modifier “leaving the cottage” refers to the subject ‘the happy couple’ and in the sentence, it is clear that the modifier is describing the subject. The phrase isn’t misplaced anymore and thus not a dangling modifier anymore.</span>

Which statement best explains how Srimati develops the theme
Goshia [24]

Answer

Srimati’s beauty attracts the attention of a wealthy man. Without someone to protect her, she gives in to temptation and deserts her home and son.

Explanation:

In "The Poison Tree," the author develops the theme that beauty without morality is dangerous. In this story, we see that Srimati is a very beautiful woman, and this leads her to attract the attention of a wealthy man. She has no one to protect her, which means that she ends up giving in to temptation. This, moreover, leads her to abandon the house of Surja's father and her son Tara Charan.

choose a topic based on what you read in act 2 or act 3 of romeo and juliet. then write a thesis statement.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

In Act II, Scene III, of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo visits Friar Lawrence and declares his love for Juliet. He then asks the Friar if he will marry them:

I’ll tell thee as we pass, but this I pray:

That thou consent to marry us today.

The Friar is shocked that Romeo wants to marry Juliet because he claimed to be madly in love with Rosaline, a silent character in the play. In fact, Romeo was quite love-sick and it was the Friar who tried to convince Romeo to let Rosaline go because she did not reciprocate his feelings. The Friar then goes on to scold Romeo because he did not want him to abandon his love for Rosaline only to go on to fall in love with another woman. However, when he realizes that Romeo is serious about Juliet and that she reciprocates his feelings, he agrees to marry them. He also recognizes that this marriage is an opportunity for the two warring families to be reconciled:

For this alliance may so happy prove

To turn your households' rancor to pure love
