1. Which statement about the narrator's son is the best example of pathos?

"The boy had a good appetite, so I didn't have to make him eat."

"He was four, a little brown boy in blue rompers, and when he talked and laughed. . .his voice was soft. . ."

"I could hear the boy crying in just that note no other child has, and when I came completely around I found him standing. . .with tears on his face."

"He would play with the ball. . .poor little rascal, he would play until he grew sick of playing."


2. Identify whether the following sentence has a misplaced modifier or a dangling modifier.
