Answer:

B, Jumping on the trampoline, the applause began.

Explanation:

A dangling modifier is a description with no clear object

A: It says "My brother broke his leg." His brother is the object so this doesnt make sense

C: "I felt my hair flying around my face" That indicates that they are the object so this doesnt make sense

D: "Sarah suddenly felt sick" Sarah is the object in this one.

C: This is your correct answer. "The applause began." has no object. Who's jumping on the trampoline?

I hope this helped :D

(Answer:

2) Jumping on the trampoline, the applause began.

Explanation:

For example:

After reading the book, the movie made more sense.

                                     ^ Who read the book? This modifier is left dangling.

After reading the book, I thought the movie made sense.

                                       ^ 'I' Is catching the modifier here.

Therefore, sentence one (Of the example) includes the dangling modifier.

In the case of the question, who was jumping on the trampoline?

Aidan is delivering an extemporaneous speech on diversity in literature. He speaks slowly, makes sure he speaks loudly enough, u
Lorico [155]

What Aidan can do to improve his delivery of his extemporaneous speech on diversity in literature is the following:

- Since extemporaneous speeches do not allow for much preparation, Aidan will need to change his delivery in order to make it more interesting.

- He should try to speak to the audience, not at them - that is, he should make the speech more conversational. If the audience thinks he is talking directly to them, they will pay more attention.

- Including anecdotes or even some light jokes may also help bright up the general mood or make the experience more enjoyable.

  • Extemporaneous speeches are given in competitions where the speakers are evaluated for the quality of their delivery.
  • Speakers are given some time to prepare on a topic, usually about 30 minutes. Then, they must speak for about 7 minutes on that subject.
  • The style of the speech should reflect spontaneity, which should make it more conversational, less formal.
  • In Aidan's case, if the conversational style is not enough to keep the audience interested, perhaps he could try and change the mood a bit.
  • Most subjects allow for the use of personal anecdotes. If he can tell a funny or compelling story, he will most likely grab people's attention.

Five act and omission which constitute a crime​
arsen [322]

Answer:

For example, when A sees B drowning and fails to save him, A may be drinking, singing, whistling, or dancing while not saving B, but this is still classified as omission in the legal context (requiring a duty to act in order to convict) since these actions are not related to the result.
