Question

question 3 (multiple choice worth 2 points) (04 oer mc) which sentence contains a misplaced modifier? - although my dog barks a lot, he does not bite. - the dog played in a large field filled with flowers. - white and fluffy, no one has ever seen something so cute. - yesterday, my dad walked the dog in his suit and tie.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A misplaced modifier is a word/phrase that is incorrectly positioned, leading to confusion about what it describes.

  1. The first sentence: The modifier "Although my dog barks a lot" clearly refers to the dog, no confusion.
  2. The second sentence: "filled with flowers" correctly modifies "a large field", no error.
  3. The third sentence: "White and fluffy" is a modifier that should describe a noun, but it is placed before "no one", which is illogical (people are not "white and fluffy" in this context). This is a misplaced modifier.
  4. The fourth sentence: "in his suit and tie" clearly refers to "my dad", no confusion.

Answer:

C. White and fluffy, no one has ever seen something so cute.
