To understand how to figure misplaced / dangling modifiers, we must first understand the message that the sentence is trying to convey to us. So let us take a look at the answer choices:

A. The veterinarian, found in the woods with a broken leg, offered to help the dog.

Was the veterinarian found in the woods with a broken leg? And if so, by whom? And if they had a broken leg, why are they concerned with helping the dog, who seems to be fine?
I do not think that answer A is the right choice, so let's move on.

B. Found in the woods, the veterinarian offered to help the dog with a broken leg.

Aha, at least now the dog has something that requires the help of the veterinarian. But why is the veterinarian being found in the woods? Is he some sort of hermit?
Probably not. Moving on!

C. Found in the woods with a broken leg, the veterinarian offered to help the dog.

Now, we are completely stumped as to what was found in the woods with a broken leg. Because it's unclear, we can dismiss it as an option choice.

D. The veterinarian offered to help the dog found in the woods with a broken leg.

NOW we're onto something! The dog was found in the woods with a broken leg, and the veterinarian offered to help. From the looks of things, this makes the most sense, and therefore, option D is the correct answer.

Hope that helped! =)

Which statement from the passage BEST supports the author's belief that threats to the natural world are rising?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B)  Also, big companies clear two million acres of American land each year to make room for homes and businesses.</em>

Explanation:

The clearing of natural lands causes a wide threat to the natural world. Many species lose their habitat as a result of clearing land. Some of these species might not be able to survive on other lands and hence come to the verge of extinction. Many species in the past have become endangered due to human activities such as cutting down of forests or removing lands for grazing of animals. Hence, the correct option is B.

Read the excerpt from Part 2 of The Odyssey. We cried aloud, lifting our hands to Zeus, powerless, looking on at this, appalled;
schepotkina [342]

The correct answer to this is:

The Cyclops is compared to a mast, or flagpole, because of his size.

The similie suggests that even Cyclops is laying down he is still huge and looks like a mast among the sheep.

In the excerpt from Part 2 of the Odyssey, Cyclops is not compared to Zeus, rather the men are "lifting hands to Zeus" (praying) because they are being eaten and need help from Gods.

Also, Cyclops does not surrender, he is taking a nap as he is full after his meal.

Answer:

7.9 Age Word Problems

One application of linear equations is what are termed age problems. When solving age problems, generally the age of two different people (or objects) both now and in the future (or past) are compared. The objective of these problems is usually to find each subject’s current age. Since there can be a lot of information in these problems, a chart can be used to help organize and solve. An example of such a table is below.
