AThe first Aristotle’s criterion of the tragic hero requires that the character must be noble or a man of high status. In that sense, as described by Achebe, “Okonkwo was well known throughout the nine villages and even beyond. His fame rested on solid personal achievements” (Achebe, 3). Starting as a sharecropper with no inheritance from his father, Okonkwo works very hard and makes his way to a wealthy and respected man of titles in Umuofia. From his hard work, Okonkwo has 3 wives with many children, a large compound with obi for each of his wives and a large stock of yams. Okonkwo earns himself respect from people both inside his clan and outside his clan through many of his achievements. When he is a young man of eighteen, he brings honor to his village by throwing the Amalinze the Cat, a wrestler who is undefeated for 7 years. In addition, Okonkwo is one of the nine Egwugwu, a respected judge in the community who is believed to be the spirit of the ancestor. Furthermore, Okonkwo is also chosen by his village to be their representative to negotiate with Mbaino village about the murderer of an Umuofia girl in Mbaino market. With ease, Okonkwo successfully brings back a boy and a virgin as compensation and ends the conflict peacefully, without any confrontation.

Answer:
- Attacked by the school bully,
- Slipping on the wet sidewalk,
Explanation:
Dangling modifiers occur when the modifiers are far from the object they modify. As a result, the meaning of the sentence is confusing, obscure, ambiguous or senseless.
In the first sentence, it is unclear to deduce whether the backpack or Abner were attacked by the school bully. Thus, the right version could be:
<em>The backpack fell from Abner's shoulder when he was attacked by the school bully</em>.
In the third sentence, it is not precise to figure out whether Amaury or the keys were slipping on the wet sidewalk. As a result, the modifier should be placed closer to the modified object, as it stated in the second sentence:
<em>When Amaury slipped on the wet sidewalk, the keys fell from his pocket.</em>
