English

The correct answer is B. a participial phrase modifying he.

The participial phrase is <em>running up the stars - </em>given that this is a participle, option A is incorrect. The subject of the sentence is the pronoun <em>he, </em>not the participle. Option C is also incorrect - given that the phrase is used correctly (it modifies the pronoun), it is not dangling. A dangling modifier is used in a wrong way because it doesn't refer to anything in a sentence - since that is not the case here, C is incorrect.

That leaves us with option B - the participial phrase is describing what the pronoun <em>he </em>is doing, therefore, it is modifying it.

Luda [366]

Answer:

The book may be introductory, but it can satisfy a scholar.

Explanation:

In any argument presentation be it in an academic paper or any book for that matter, the presence of any phrases like "sound lines' ' will show an emphasis on the fact that the presented argument is to a certain extent, true and has validation. At the same time, the words "amply provide" will imply that the sources or argument presented is enough to prove the given point. These two phrases thus, help make the argument that the given points may be introductory but at the same time, they can also satisfy a scholar's viewpoint.

Is the phrase "plain surprise" an oxymoron?
Katen [24]
I don’t really think so, as an oxymoron is two contradictory words put together. Eg The living death, a small crowd or bittersweet.
Plain and Surprise are not necessarily contradictory.
