In which sentence are the italicized words a dangling modifier? A)Flying beneath the cloud, the pilot could see the airport. B)Resting on the sea bottom, the old trunk held coins. C)Arriving ten minutes late, the store was closed for the night. Not knowing the danger, the soldiers marched into the trap.

Did the store arrive ten minutes late?

The correct answer is C) "Arriving ten minutes late, the store was closed for the night." In this sentence, the phrase "Arriving ten minutes late" is a dangling modifier because it does not have a clear subject to modify. To identify dangling modifiers, we need to determine if the modifier is describing something that logically follows in the sentence. In this case, it is unclear who arrived ten minutes late, as the store cannot physically arrive.
