Which revision corrects the dangling modifier in this sentence? Riding my bike, a raccoon crossed the street. While I was riding my bike, a raccoon crossed the street. A raccoon crossed the street while riding my bike. While riding my bike, a raccoon crossed the street. A raccoon crossed the street, riding my bike.

Respuesta :

The revision that corrects the dangling modifier is option B) "While I was riding my bike, a raccoon crossed the street."

Dangling modifiers are mistakes in sentences when it is not clear what the modifier is modifying.

In this case, the rest of the options provided are cases of dangling modifiers since it is not clear who is riding the bike (The raccoon is riding my bike?).  

Dangling modifiers should be avoided as they create confusion in the reader.
