Answer:
(A)
Explanation:
You need to share the main article, as well.
I am pretty sure it narrows down to (A) or (D), and based on the context, I would say it is going to be (A).
I have assumed that the main article is about piggybacking and how it influences to implement habits.
I might be able to help better if I had the article in my disposal.
The underlined participial phrase which is "continuing to stir the soup", is placed incorrectly. The correct sentence should be, "The phone rang and my mother, continuing to stir the soup, answered it". Why is it misplaced? Putting the participial phrase at the beginning of the sentence makes it a dangling modifier because it does not clearly state the specific word it modifies. In the corrected sentence, it is clear now who is being described with the phrase "continuing to stir the soup", which is the "mother".
While this should be something you should answer on your own with your own feelings, an example paragraph could be this:
Example: When I first learn to research things, I had difficulty citing and finding legitimate resources. Now, I've figured out how by asking for help and by using the skills I've been taught in the past. I've developed an understanding of how to reasearch by the lessons I've also been taught now. I've now developed the skills to see if an article or video is legitimate. I can now say I was happy to learn how to reasearch things properly, because it will benifit me in the future.
Hope that helps.

Realist authors wanted to A. Depict life as it really was. They would usually use show names of real places and describe real houses including the most minute details. Not only this, they would always try to imitate even the language of the locals as much as possible. Such examples would be Mark Twain, or Henry James.
