Read the excerpt from President Woodrow Wilson’s speech, “War Message to Congress.” On the 3d of February last I officially laid

before you the extraordinary announcement of the Imperial German Government that on and after the 1st day of February it was its purpose to put aside all restraints of law or of humanity and use its submarines to sink every vessel that sought to approach either the ports of Great Britain and Ireland or the western coasts of Europe or any of the ports controlled by the enemies of Germany within the Mediterranean. It is a war against all nations. American ships have been sunk, American lives taken, in ways which it has stirred us very deeply to learn of, but the ships and people of other neutral and friendly nations have been sunk and overwhelmed in the waters in the same way. There has been no discrimination. The challenge is to all mankind. Each nation must decide for itself how it will meet it. The choice we make for ourselves must be made with a moderation of counsel and a temperateness of judgment befitting our character and our motives as a nation. We must put excited feelings away. Our motive will not be revenge or the victorious assertion of the physical might of the nation, but only the vindication of right, of human right, of which we are only a single champion. Who is the intended audience of this speech?

Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The answer is sentence number one.

Explanation:

Every word in a sentence has a meaning. Some of them modify the main word. Misplaced modifier is, as its name suggests, such a word modifying not the word its meant to, but a completely different word. Therefore it is misplaced in a sentence. This changes the meaning of a whole or a part of a sentence.

Having this in mind we see that phrase <em>a gold man's watch </em>from the first sentence has illogical meaning. So looking at this phrase we could interpret it as  a watch that belongs to a gold man, which is highly unlikely. Usually a misplaced modifier is corrected by simply changing the order of the words, which means that in this case the phrase should say: man`s gold watch.

Other sentences from the text do not have ambiguous meaning such this.

Which passage from Grendel best illustrates the theme "life is meaningless"?
kaheart [24]
I have found the choices to your question from another source and I will place them here:

A) All order, I've come to understand, is theoretical, unreal -- a harmless, sensible, smiling mask men slide between the two great, dark realities. B) I seize up a sleeping man, tear at him hungrily, bite through his bone-locks and suck hot, slippery blood.C) Fate often enough will spare a man if his courage holds. (162)D) As if casually, in plain sight of them all, I bit his head off, crunched through the helmet and skull with my teeth and, blood-slippery body in two hands. (79)

Among these choices, the passage that would suggest that "life is meaningless" would be option A. That passage suggests that every order is not real, that people just unknowingly go over between the "two dark realities".

It supports that life is meaningless by telling us that the order we try so much to achieve and maintain is nothing but a theoretical concept - an imagination.
