Read the sentence .

Considering the candidates, one stands out as the best choice .


1. Does the sentence contain a misplaced or dangling modifier ? Explain your reasoning
2. revise the sentence to correct the misplaced or dangling modifier

Respuesta :

The sentence contains a dangling modifier.

As it is written the modifier "considering the candidates" seems to be describing "one." However, one is not doing the considering; instead, "one" is a candidate. 

A better revision might be "Considering the candidates, I feel one stands out as the best choice." In this way, the person doing the considering is made clear.
