The answer is B. Under the surface

Explanation:

The context of a word refers to other words and phrases that surround a word and help the reader understand a difficult or unfamiliar word. Int he case of the word "subterranean" this is used to describe the system of rivers a group of scientists found after drilling or perforating the ground and therefore it is expected based in this context that the word "subterranean" means under the ground or below the surface as it is a feature of systems that can only be found if you drill into the ground. Thus, the correct answer is "under the surface".

Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.

ludmilkaskok [199]

We planned to take a trip to Asia in three years or less.

The modifier "in three years or less" was misplaced.

A misplaced modifier is a word or phrase which is separated from the subject it modifies, thus making the sentence syntactically incorrect as well as illogical: I found the stained man's hankerchief.

A squinting modifier creates ambiguity in a sentence through its placement, by making it unclear which part it modifies (the one that comes before it or the one that comes after it): Combing your hair softly detangles it.

A dangling modifier gives an information without clearly stating its subject in the sentence. It often consists of "having + past participle" or "being + past participle" constructions, like: Being tired after the show, going straight home was the best plan.
