Answer:

Since the modifier is modifying the incorrect word, it is a dangling modifier. As a result, the meaning of the sentence is affected.

Explanation:

A dangling modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is not in the right position in a sentence. As a result, the dangling modifier is operating over another word, phrase, or clause. Consequently, the sentence can be hard to understand, or can have another meaning than the intended one, or has no sense.

Answer:

The tone of the passage from "Hills Like White Elephants" is emotional.

So the right answer will be Option C.

Explanation:

Hemingway’s "Hills Like White Elephants,” displays a hollow communication between the two main characters. Both exist in different realms altogether. They are present physically together but their communication acts as a window to their reality – they are emotionally distant. Existing in completely different realms, they are unable to merge with one another. It shows how they are unable to embrace each other. Both the characters are conversing but there is no depth in it. It is empty and there is a disconnection in the very foundation of their relationship. This is well portrayed by Hemingway.
