A four letter word? my guess would be <em>LEAP</em>
<span>1. Factious leaders or religious sects may come to dominate a particular state or region, but are very unlikely to dominate the entire nation
2. Improper or unjust projects will be less likely to pervade the entirety of the nation.</span>
I believe the correct answer is B. The modifier "wearing a blue dress" is placed far from the noun which is supposed to modify - Stacey. Such as it is, it could easily be attributed to another noun, the stage. It would seem that the stage was wearing a blue dress, rather than Stacey. This is easily fixable with a comma between "stage" and "wearing".
The C and D sentences are also a little bit awkward, but they don't contain a misplaced modifier.
