Answer:
Since the modifier is modifying the incorrect word, it is a dangling modifier. As a result, the meaning of the sentence is affected.
Explanation:
A dangling modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is not in the right position in a sentence. As a result, the dangling modifier is operating over another word, phrase, or clause. Consequently, the sentence can be hard to understand, or can have another meaning than the intended one, or has no sense.
Story 1
An Interesting Day
Mark and Danny were exploring the caves in the blue-ridge mountains of Shenandoah with their dad Frank. After walking through many caves, they reached a large cave, well lit by the sun shining through a gap in its roof.
However, it seemed as if no one had entered the cave in many years. There, the three of them were surprised to find a gold-colored statue in one corner of the cave. They went closer to look at the statue. It was beautiful and had a crown on its head decorated with colored stones.
Their dad Frank, who was a historian, said, "It appears that the statue is ancient and valuable. We must inform the local museum about this. The statue could be up to 4,000 years old." Mark and Danny were thrilled and grateful to their dad for having brought them on this adventure.
Story 2
Genie and Her Kittens
Hannah and Jill were feeding a stray cat in the backyard of their home. They had named the cat Genie, and she was lapping up all the milk in the saucer and seemed very hungry. She had just eaten a whole bowl of cat food, too. Hannah and Jill were surprised. Their own cat Tabitha usually did not eat or drink so much.
All of a sudden, they heard a mewling coming from the shed at the end of the backyard. They walked up to the shed, opened the door, and were surprised by what they saw. There were three little kittens in there!
"They look so adorable," said Hannah. "They must be Genie's. No wonder she is so hungry."
"This solves the mystery of the sounds coming from the backyard last night," said Jill.

Explanation:
How does the poet present the theme of death in do not go gentle? 1 paragraph
Answer:
In “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night,” the speaker acknowledges that death is inevitable—everyone dies, sooner or later. But that doesn't mean that people should simply give up and give in to death. Instead, the speaker argues that people should fight, fiercely and bravely, against death.The speaker also acknowledges that death is impossible to evade, but urges his father to fight it for as long as he can. The theme of this line is morality and transcendentalism. This line laments the inevitability and necessity of death, encouraging old people to rise up against their death and fate.Yet the poem suggests that despite death's inevitability, one can overcome it in some sense by leaving behind great words and actions, which requires resisting the temptation to yield to death. So whatever your greatness is, do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light! In his second stanza Thomas describes the wise men whose words forked no lighting. The meaning of this is that their words weren't able to leave their desired mark on the world.The tone here is desperate pleading as the speaker urges his father not "to go gentle into that good night" but to "rage, rage against the dying of the light." We realize that up to this point the speaker has been giving examples of various types of men--wise men, good men, grave men and many more.
Explanation:
Adan's trial lawyer was M. Gutierrez, a renowned defense attorney in Maryland- tough and savvy and smart. Other lawyers said she was exactly the kind of person you'd want defending you o a first-degree murder charge. But Adnan was convicted, and a year later, Gutierrez was disbarred. What happened?
Answer:
What probably happened is that there was irrevocable evidence that Adnam was guilty of the murder and the lawyer was unable to appeal the judge's decision, due to the true nature of the evidence.
Explanation:
A first-degree murder is one where the murderer planned the murder, predicted and qualified a plan, where he was fully aware that the victim would be killed. Adnam caused this type of murder and evidence was presented that prevented anyone from doubting his guilt. The evidence was so true that it was impossible not to condemn Adnam for his crime, to which he is unrepentant. Because of such true evidence, Adnam's lawyer was unable to ask for the decision to be revoked, and was dismissed shortly thereafter.

what does this sermon teach you about the puritans and their way of life and views? Provide at least two pieces of evidence.
Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible to elaborate an answer exactly. However, I will help you in the best possible way.
After researching several Puritan sermons, we can conclude that Puritans led a very rigid way of life, with little freedom and a lot of religiosity. Puritans rejected everything that was not described in the Bible as correct. For them, thoughts that were not turned to God and religion were sinful, as were actions and activities considered unclean by the church.
If a Puritan sinned, even in thought, he should be punished severely, for that is the only way to reach God's forgiveness.
They also believed that all people were condemned to hell, but God would choose some for salvation. The chosen ones would receive a confirmation signal at some point in life.

In the background notes, we read that the author does not believe in symbols. What do you think the tuna means to him?
If this question is about “Ode to Large Tuna in the Market” we can see that for the author, tuna means the finitude of life. This is because the driver is amazed at how tuna was once a strong and vigorous fish, which overcame the adversities of the sea fudge and was full of life, but was surprised by the finitude of life and the feeling that everything comes to end.
With this, the author shows how the struggles and all the vigor we have in life are insignificant, since our life will end anyway.
