Dangling construction is defined as <span>group of words that works as a modifier for a noun or phrase. But said noun or phrase is absent in the sentence.
Dangling modifiers are usually found at the beginning of the sentence but it can sometimes be found at the end of the sentence.
Correcting a dangling construction, one can do any of the following:
</span><span>1. Place the modifier next to the word it modifies.
3. Supply a word for the modifier to describe.
4. Change the dangling modifier to a subordinate clause.
</span>

Hello there!
Part A.
Connotative meaning is the emotional or cultural meaning that you give to a certain term. In the narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, the connotative meaning that the author gives to the word "warmly" in the second sentence should be "quietly and seriously".
<em>Argument:</em> Since Mrs. Auld does not know how to treat a slave -because she has never had a slave before- wants to teach Douglass how to read. She assumes that he is warmly urged to learn, but nobody hears him screaming for a better life.
Part B.
The effect that the author uses within the word "warmly" in this passage is that Mr. Auld feels strongly that Douglass should not learn to read.
<em>Argument:</em> When Mr. Auld notices that his wife is teaching Douglass how to read, he gives her a lesson. He said to her that teaching a slave how to read is forbidden and illegal, and he stands out the point that if slaves start knowing the basics such as reading, they would not want to be slaves anymore and people like them -Mr. and Mrs. Auld- would not have servitude.
