Answer:

The first edition of "Frankenstein" was published on 1st January, 1818.

Explanation:

Mary Shelly's famous gothic novel "Frankenstein" or  "The Modern Prometheus" was first published on January 1, 1818 without an author. this anonymous publication was due to the fact that women writers were not openly accepted in those times.

This novel tells the story of a young scientist, Victor Frankenstein's creation of a monstrous being in a rather unethical manner. Though he may be unusual, he wasn't a monster initially. When he was rejected by his own creator, Victor, he started becoming more like a monster. He despised himself and hated everyone who rejected him, also people began to be repulsed by his appearance too.

Narrated from Victor's point of view, the story moved from when the created being became the master who had control over the other humans.  He was responsible for the death of William, Victor's younger brother and also that of a young girl named Justine who had been accused of being William's killer. The monster approached Victor during his vacation in the mountains, admitting his actions of killing William. But he also said he has reasons and asked him to create a female for him so that he will not be alone. Everyone got their partners to be with but he is a lonely monster, shunned by everyone and with no companion, even rejected by his own creator.

Victor was eventually convinced and he started working on the new creation. But, afraid of what the monster might really do if he has a companion, Victor destroys the unfinished project. Angered by this, the monster vowed to make Victor's life hell, promising to hurt him on his wedding night. Victor was then arrested and accused for the death of his friend Henry, which of course, was the work of the monster. Some years later, he married Elizabeth. Remembering the monster's promise, he decided to send his new wife to another room, thinking the monster will come for him. But, it was his wife who would be killed instead. So, Victor vowed to hunt the monster down and made it his life mission.

Well I see it as an A for effort. But in in all fairness if you lost the game you shouldn't really be a sore loser because of it. In football games the people keeping score don't give the points the other team that lost because "they tried". I was on the cheerleading team and the other girls won nationals but I thought it was unfair because we all really tried our hardest and the thought we should get extra points. But I know that's totally ridiculous now.

This becomes clear in paragraph 21, where the author describes how the teen raised money by collecting funds to pay school tuition for street kids. Okina was inspired to do this after he met a 13-year-old homeless kid named Frederick who could not attend school and decided to help him and others like him.

Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.
Maru [420]

Answer:

The "scarce" bit is the three chapters, which is a tiny portion of the book. So the modifier "scarcely" needs to go directly before the words it modifies.
