Answer:

MM (Misplaced Modifier)

Explanation:

The modifier is the word or clause that, when placed within a sentence, has the ability to explain a term or other clause present in the same sentence. In the sentence presented in the question above, the term "library book" is the modifier and is misplaced in the sentence, leaving it confused and lacking cohesion. In this case, we can say that the modifier was misplaced. The correct sentence would be: Philip had read three chapters of the library book when he discovered that it was overdue.

Explanation:

Dear Steven,

I am in the fifth form. Our classroom is on the second floor of the school. There are twenty-one desks in the classroom and two pupils sit at each desk.The teacher’s desk is in the front of the pupils’ desks. The blackboard is on the wall to the left of teacher. The chalk and the duster are in a box near the blackboard.There are four very large windows on the side of the room opposite to the door. We open the windows during the break between lessons.There are portraits on the wall over the blackboard. There are pictures and maps hanging on the walls in the classroom.There are lamps hanging above the desks. In winter it gets dark early so we turn on the light.We begin our lessons at 12.05. We have five lessons a day. We have a short 10-minute break between lessons, but we have a long 20-minute break between the second and third lessons. During the long break we go to the dining-room and have lunch. We finish our lessons at ten minutes past five.

Convey my regards to your parents.

Yours sincerely,

Alex

Part A: The author describes the dangerous situation that the characters in the story are facing.

Throughout the passage the speaker reminds the reader of the danger the characters are facing. This creates suspense. A flashback does not create suspense. The background and training adds to how dangerous the situation is since only a person that well-trained can complete the rescue but it doesn't add to the suspense: the danger does. A is also wrong for the same reason.

Part B: “I shouldn’t think of this as easy. I know what I need to do here, but I could lose one these men if just one thing goes wrong.”

This quote best shows the danger that the speaker and the characters are in. It shows that the situation is life and death. One wrong move and it's all over for someone.

Citrus2011 [14]
Nuance refers to slight and subtle differences in shades of meaning. Something that is nuanced has many different shades of meaning, in the same way that a photo might have many different shades of gray. An example is like imagining that a character in a novel is walking across the room. Think about how it would be different if that character marched across the room versus if that character shuffled across the room. So your answer would be that you have to pay attention to the way something is written!

Answer:

D. useless toil

Explanation:

Toil means to work hard and long; exhausting physical labor. Useless toil is present in both the myth and the modern story because in the myth, the deceitful king works so hard to roll the boulder up to the top of the hill only for it to roll back down again. In the modern story, the fisherman works so hard to reel in an enormous fish, only for sharks to eat it before he can get it to shore. In both cases, they are working hard for no personal gain.

So, the answer would be D.

Hope that helps.
