Answer:
Dangling constructions are parts of sentences that are located in the wrong position and therefore mislead the reader that they refer to something else other than what the author intended.
Q1. Dates became a burden to me, as I was naturally shy.
The way the original sentence was written, it would seem that 'dates' are naturally shy, and not 'me.'
Q2. Our ranch can easily be seen if you look north.
The way the original sentence was written, it would seem that the 'ranch' was performing the action of looking north.
Q3. While I was climbing to the roof, the ladder slipped and made me fall.
If you add the pronoun I, you will make sure that you were the one climbing to the roof and not the ladder.
Q4. By being ignored. Johnny stopped having tantrums.
If you make Johnny the object of being ignored, you will avoid a dangling construction.
Q5. Dad set a trap by the chrysanthemums because they were eaten by gophers.
The way the original sentence was written, it would seem that 'Dad' was eaten by gophers, and not the flowers.
Q6. When Don was nine, his father died of a cerebral hemorrhage.
The way the original sentence was written, it would seem that Don's dad was nine years old when he died.
Q7. To sew properly, you should follow a pattern.
It's important to write who will be performing the action.
Q8. To achieve success in any field, you must maintain perseverance.
The same as the previous sentence.
Q9. By arriving at the fair early, you can see the winning entries.
The same as the previous sentence.

The importance of Exercise
In our society nowadays, I feel exercise is often overlooked and people are okay with their body type, which honestly a good thing if you ask me, but if you're unhealthy I don't think its okay to brush it off, just because the society is brushing it off. So today I have come to outline the importance and significance of exercise.
What is exercise? well in accordance to the Oxford Dictionary it is an activity requiring physical effort, carried out to sustain or improve health and fitness. Exercise is medically proven that people who do exercise have up to 35% lower in heart disease and stroke. Exercise is a great way to stay healthy, because by all the rapid movement calories are burning which can cause in weight loss, or remove unhealthy substances from your body through sweat particles.
It is also said that exercise improves mental health by reducing anxiety, depression and negative moods, this is in accordance to NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information). Exercise is also good for skin, bone health and energy level boost. Exercise helps for people to age well. Lastly exercise may come in handy when dealing with day to day situations and problems, exercise may come in handy, like when you are carrying chairs or doing something that need muscle strength, even better when you're in situation that requires running from a certain danger, then exercise is most definitely needed. I hope this article was able to convince you and not confuse you that exercise is good for you
PLEASE HELP PLEASE paragraph 3: I speak to you as a man, who 50 years and nine days ago had no name, no hope, no future and was known only by his number, A7713. paragraph 4:I speak as a Jew who has seen what humanity has done to itself by trying to exterminate an entire people and inflict suffering and humiliation and death on so many others. question: Reread paragraphs 3–4 and identify the examples of parallelism.

Answer:
Examples of parallelism: "I speak to you as a man, who 50 years and nine days ago had no name, no hope, no future..."
"trying to exterminate an entire people and inflict suffering and humiliation and death on so many others."
The second one, I'm stuck lol
The impact which is created by the parallelism is I speak to you as a man, who 50 years and nine days ago had no name, no hope, no future and was known only by his number, A7713.
What do you understand by parallelism?Parallelism, otherwise called equal design or equal development, is an equilibrium inside at least one sentences of comparable expressions or provisos that have a similar syntactic construction.
The utilization of parallelism influences coherence and may make texts simpler to process.
Parallelism is the matching of the types of words, expressions, or statements inside a sentence. Altering your work for equal development further develops lucidity and accentuates your focuses.

What is right to vote?Right to vote is the basic rights to all the people to decide their representative. There is no equality in the country as people are discriminated on the basis of caste, religion, income and living standards, but the right to vote is for all the people who are living in the country.
Voting is a right, according to the U.S. Constitution. Since the first election, numerous constitutional amendments have been ratified. None of them, though, required American citizens to vote. Despite not being required by law, voting is an essential part of every democracy.

What are the narrator's traits in the story "sixteen"
Answer:
Maureen Daly uses a first person narrator in her short story “Sixteen.” As the story begins, the narrator, who is the protagonist, goes to great lengths to let the reader know that she is worldly in a teenaged sort of way. She knows what the latest styles are, she reads the current editorials, and listens to the radio.
Answer:
In "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly, the narrator expresses how she is an intuitive teenage girl; she knows the trends, and she is up-to-date with the world. She also immediately insists that "I’m not so really dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn’t". Not only does she describe what she should and shouldn't wear, when she arrives at the skating rink she describes the sky and her surroundings, implying that she is highly detail oriented.
After she states twice that she was not a "dumb" girl, and giving reasons why she wasn't, we realize she was trying to reassure herself of the fact. All logic is out the window once she mets with her love interest, and she feels dumb for believing that he would call her; "for all of a sudden I know, what the stars knew all the time ---- he’ll never, never call --- never".

What does having “a place by the window” mean? Why does Esperanza use the word baptized instead of “change”? What other words do we associate with baptism? My Name by Sandra Cisneros
Answer:
Having “a place by the window” means standing still while watching life go by.
The word "baptized" means that Esperanza would like to have the ability to change her name since birth and not change it now, after she has grown up.
We can associate the word "baptized", in this story, the word "reborn", "resurge".
Explanation:
In "My Name" by Sandra Cisneros we learn about Esperanza's thoughts on her name. She believes that her name does not have a good cootation, a good story and does not fit well among English speakers.
She recalls that she has the same name as her grandmother, who was a very strong woman, but who was trapped in an undesirable marriage, unable to experience life's opportunities and just watching life go by and time go by. Experanza does not want to have that destination, although she has the same name as Grandma.
Experanza wants to have a better life and believes that changing her name would be a good first step, but she didn't want to change her name now, she wanted to be baptized with another name, which indicates that she wanted to be reborn and have a different life.

Read this excerpt from Holes. The judge called Stanley's crime despicable. "The shoes were valued at over five thousand dollars. It was money that would provide food and shelter for the homeless. And you stole that from them, just so you could have a souvenir." The judge said that there was an opening at Camp Green Lake, and he suggested that the discipline of the camp might improve Stanley's character. It was either that or jail. Stanley's parents asked if they could have some time to find out more about Camp Green Lake, but the judge advised them to make a quick decision. "Vacancies don't last long at Camp Green Lake." Why does Sachar include this description of Stanley's trial? to show the reader that Stanley should have had a lawyer to show the reader that Camp Green Lake is a popular destination to show the reader how unfairly Stanley is treated by people of authority to show the reader how valuable Clyde Livingston's shoes actually were

Question 1 - round and dynamic.
Question 2 - Margarita's grandmother passed away, which inspired her to volunteer at a nursing home.
Explanation:
Question 1:
In literature, characters who change and grow over the course of a particular text are known as dynamic characters. If we know a lot of their characteristics, then they are also round characters. On the other hand, static characters do not change and we know only one or two of their defining characteristics, which also makes them flat.
Question 2:
As stated previously, round characters are those who change and grow due to some conflict. In option B, the conflict is found in the passing of Margarita's grandmother. As a result, Margarita grew and decided to volunteer at a nursing home.
Questions 3, 4, 5, and 6 are impossible to answer without the Module or the short story.
