TIMED!!!!!! HURRY PLZ¡¡¡ Read the excerpt from "Dwaina Brooks.” Coupons helped cut the prices for sandwich wrapping, cookies, an

d mayonnaise. Dwaina's uncle got them discount lunch meats from the store where he used to work. Thursday night was bargain night at the bakery in nearby Lancaster. They drove away with six big loaves of day-old bread for $1.78. "Mama, do you think anyone at the shelter will really eat day-old bread?" Dwaina asked. "We eat it," Gail replied. "If it don't kill us, it won't kill them." The baker gave them twenty free boxes, too, when he heard how they would be used. Dwaina's aunts and uncles brought over huge sacks of chips and big bottles of salad dressing. What idea is emphasized through repetition?
Dwaina was overwhelmed and unsure what to do with the additional food.

Many people in the community were nervous about helping Dwaina.

Dwaina wanted to make the meals without help from the community.

Many people in the community contributed to Dwaina’s cause in their own way.

Answer:

Many people in the community contributed to Dwaina’s cause in their own way.

Explanation:

Dwaina Brooks had formed a group of volunteers comprising of friends and family members in order to help feed the homeless and poor people in her home Dallas in Texas. She first started this charity work when she was in the fourth grade, helping however she can.

From the excerpt from "Dwaina Brooks", the passage shows just how she had managed to get things for everyone, however much she can. The repetition also is for emphasizing the efforts of the people in the community in helping her. They contributed to her cause in their own way, some providing leftover bread. One "<em>baker gave them twenty free boxes, (and her relatives) brought packets of chips and big bottles of salad dressings</em>".

Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier? The dog catcher said he would return our dog on Saturday. My uncle served steaks o
Alinara [238K]
Let us first define the meaning of misplaced modifier; it is a word, clause, or phrase that is improperly placed in a sentence which make it refer or modify an unintended word. 
The first, second, and third sentences that are given above sound correct because their modifiers are placed just right.  Only the fourth sentence sounded awkwardly and confusing, because the clause "who lives in New York" is improperly separated from the subject "My aunt", which must be described in the first place, and not the "holidays". 

The sentence will sound and can be understood better if it is written this way,

"My aunt, who lives in New York, is coming home for the holidays."
