Question

HELP ASAP Read the sentence. Swinging through the air, the children were delighted by the acrobats on the stage. Which revision best corrects the dangling modifier?

The children were delighted by the acrobats swinging through the air on the stage.
The children were delighted by the acrobats on the stage swinging through the air.
The children swinging through the air were delighted by the acrobats on the stage.
The children swinging through the air were delighted on the stage by the acrobats.

Answer 1

Answer:the top is a

Explanation: A

Answer 2

The best modification of this sentence would be answer choice A. The children were delighted by the acrobats swinging through the air on the stage.

This sentence has the proper structure and the tense and number of the subject/s and verb/s agree. Unlike answer options C and D, the acrobats are still the ones swinging and the children are still the ones delightfully observing in choice A. The reason B is incorrect is because the prepositions are in an awkward order and make he sentence sound choppy. Answer choice A meets all the criteria for a grammatically correct sentence.

I hope this helps! :)
