The correct answer is "A".
It is previously known by the reader that all the villagers in town are gathering together for the traditional lottery which is celebrated every June 27. However, due to the small population in the town (only 300 people), there is an expectation for Tessie's arrival at the event, due to the fact that every resident is expected to participate. This is known when the person responsible for leading the event asks if there is anyone missing and she gets the immediate response that an individual named Dunbar is not there.
I think the correct answer would be C but I could be wrong.
Answer:
The answer is C. Thank you.
Explanation:
The answer is:
The poet uses repetition to highlight how much water surrounds the sailors.
Repetition is a literary and rhetorical device which involves the recurrence of a word or phrase for emphasis, to add intensity and to make the speaker's ideas and thoughts more straightforward.
In the passage from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," the author Samuel Taylor Coleridge makes use of repetition to make more forceful the fact that the sailor is thirsty in a motionless ship, in the middle of water but unable to consume it.
The sentence that contains a dangling modifier is C) Looking through the window, the room seemed very large.
It is dangling because we don't know who the participial phrase <em>looking through the window </em>refers to. It certainly doesn't refer to the room, the room wasn't looking through the window.
