Which sentence does not contain misplaced or dangling modifiers?

Svetach [21]

My best advice here is to read every answer choice out loud and see which one flows best and makes the most sense to you. the correct answer is A. every other answer choice places "written too quickly" in an awkwardly.

B. "many errors, written too quickly" -- the hind part of that sentence is confusing because you can't tell what was written too quickly. because the comma comes right after "errors," one might assume that the errors themselves were written too quickly, rather than the article. the subject is unclear so this answer choice is incorrect.

C. "written too quickly about the recent election" is the first clause in that sentence. it doesn't make sense. what was written too quickly? what was about the recent election? again, the reader wouldn't know how to apply the info given in the first part of the sentence to the last part.

D. "the article written too quickly" -- written is assumed to be the verb, here. the article written doesn't make sense. the article WAS written does. but still, the "written too quickly about the recent election" is a mess in the middle of the sentence because when the subject is introduced first, as "the article" was, it's difficult to find your way through the misplaced modifier to find the verb that applies to this subject.

A gives the modifier first, separating it from the rest of the sentence with a comma to show that "written too quickly" is a conditional of sorts. because it was written too quickly... it had many errors. it's more logical and it doesn't split your subject and verb up so awkwardly.

What literary device does Poe use in line 4? What does this add to the

Art [367]

The literary device Poe uses in line four is alliteration.

This device adds to the effect of the stanza because the repeated sound reminds us of the waves in the ocean.

This question refers to the poem "To Helen," by Edgar Allan Poe. In the first stanza, the poet compares Helen's beauty to barks of yore on a gentle sea.
In line 4, Poe uses alliteration, which is a device consisting of the repetition of an initial sound in words that are close to one another:

"The weary, way-worn wanderer borne"

The repetition of the "w" sound is used to make us think of the swooshing sound the waves of the ocean produce.
With that, we can conclude the poet adds to the effect of the stanza by allowing readers to picture the scene being described more vividly.

katrin [286]

Answer:

Explanation:

'Roll Of Thunder, Hear My Cry' is a novel written by Mildred D. Taylor. The novel centers around the theme of racism and set during the time of the Great Depression and Jim Crow period.

In the novel, the Logans children are insulted and humiliated by white children's school bus. The bus would splash mud water on Logans children. So, one day, the children decided to dig a hole that would make the bus unable to use for several weeks. So, they dug a hole and the bus got stuck.

The night the bus got stuck, it worried Cassie as she wondered if someone might have seen them digging the hole and told someone about it. During that time, blacks were mysteriously being burned and killed, and when Joe Avery came to visit their house that night, Cassie thought that someone might have seen them digging the hole.

Thus the correct option is 1.
