This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
What change should be made in sentence 3? (Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef.)
A. Insert a comma after "fist".
B. Change "then" to "than".
C. Change "spins" to "spun".
D. Change "it" to "them".
Answer:
The change that should be made in sentence 3 is:
C. Change "spins" to "spun".
Explanation:
The sentence "Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef" is incorrect for only one reason - the shift in verb tenses. The sentence begins with a verb in the simple past and, all of a sudden, changes to the simple present. It is clear that this is a sequence of actions that took place in the past, one after the other, so the shift is inappropriate in this case. To correct it, we must change the verb in the present form (spins) to the past form (spun):
Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spun it into the air, trying to mimic the chef.
Answer:
B) Laughing uproariously, the little girls ran away from the group of boys they'd just attacked with water balloons.
Explanation:
Participle phrases work as adjectives: they start with -<em>ing </em>if it is a present participle, and they begin with a past participle form if it refers to the past. In this case, the participle phrase is<em> laughing uproariously</em>, which provides characterization to the sentence.

A lion represents strength, power, and royalty. Many rulers over many centuries have used lions as an animal of pride. Babylon was an especially good kingdom that used them and even used them in executions to make the people fear them. A lion is a predator and so it makes the kingdom seem strong willed and dangerous as well as somehow holy. England used the lion as a symbol of Christ and just like the Greeks put Medusas' head on their soldiers' shields, England put the lion on the coat of arms as a symbol of protection, might, and yet again, royalty and a symbol of fear to a warring country.
