In which sentence are the italicized words a dangling modifier? (A dangling modifier is a phrase that has no word in the sentence to modify.) A. Arriving ten minutes late, the store was closed for the night.
B. Not knowing the danger, the soldiers marched into the trap.
C. Resting on the sea bottom, the old trunk held many coins.
D. Flying beneath the cloud, the pilot could see the airport.

Answers

(a) Arriving ten minutes late, the store was closed for the night. "Arriving ten minutes late" is the dangling modifier. It's supposed to modify "the store" but a store can't arrive ten minutes late. Therefore, one could say this instead: Arriving ten minutes late, the man closed the store for the night.

(b) CORRECT. Soldiers can be ignorant of danger.
(c) CORRECT. An old trunk can rest on the sea bottom.
(d) CORRECT. A pilot can fly beneath the cloud.

In which of the following sentences is the verb in the active voice?A. The mother called her son for lunch.
B. The telephone bill was paid yesterday.
C. The boy was called by his mother.
D. We were told that Jim is ill.

Answers

A. The mother called her son for lunch.

The verb in the sentence uses active voice because the subject of the sentence is the one doing the action stated by the verb.

The mother is the subject of the sentence. She is the one doing the verb "called". Therefore, the verb is using the active voice.

The other choices are using passive voice because the subjects are not the ones doing the action. Instead, the subjects are the recipient of the action or verb.
