The correct answer is:  

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

Examples of informative speech
umka2103 [35]

Know your audience or reader: Your informative presentation – whether through speech or essay – should cover a subject not already well known to your audience, but still relevant to them. If you do choose a topic they’re familiar with, then present new and exciting information. Consider the age, knowledge level, and interests of your audience when preparing your informational speech or essay.

Consider your own interests: Think of your own passions and areas of expertise that you think people could benefit from learning more about. Choosing a topic you care about will help your speech or essay be better received. Your passion will keep them engaged and curious to learn more.

Consider length requirements: How much time are you allotted for your informative speech? What is the page requirement for your informative essay? You should be able to thoroughly cover the topic in the amount of time you are given. If you don’t think you have enough knowledge or personal interest to talk about illegal drug use among teens, saving money as a college student, or another informative topic for 20 minutes, you may need to consider a different subject.
