Explanation:

Note, in the English Language, the term modifier refers to a word, phrase, or clause that is used to modify (or adds meaning to) other words in a sentence. Note, the modifier of the sentence is bolded.

1. "On her way, Jan found a gold man's watch." Here, the word 'a' (a proposition) acts as a modifier of the word, <em>"gold man's watch".</em>

<em>2. </em>"The child ate a cold dish of cereal for breakfast this morning." Here, the phrase<em>"a cold dish of" </em>modifies the word "child ate", And the word, <em>"this" </em>modifies the word "morning".

3. "The torn student's book lay on the desk." Here, the word, <em>"on the"</em> acts as the modifier of the phrase, "The torn student's book lay".

4. "Just John was picked to host the program," Here, the phrase <em>"was picked to"  modify the phrase, "</em>host the program".

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

To correctly punctuate the sentence, we must:

A. Add a comma after the word dark.

D. Add a comma after the word evil.

Explanation:

We must use a comma to separate coordinate adjectives in a sentence. Coordinate adjectives have the same degree of importance in the structure and describe the same noun. The sentence we are analyzing here uses coordinate adjectives in "evil mad scientist" and "dark distant mountains". However, the punctuation is off. To correct it, we must add a comma after "evil" and another after "dark":

- The unicorns know of an evil, mad scientist who lives beyond those dark, distant mountains.
