2) The sentence that contains a misplaced modifier is sentence D.

3) The sentence that uses a colon correctly is sentence A.

Explanation:

A misplaced modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is improperly separated from the word it modifies.  2D contains a misplaced clause modifying the wrong noun. In order to fix the error, you should place the clause next to the noun it is supposed to modify or describe.  The revised version of the sentence would be as follows: Tori threw all her clothes that she had worn in the hamper.

Then, as regards 3A, it can be said that it contains a colon used correctly because it has been used to introduce a list, the list of things an assistant can do. What is more, the first item is not capitalized.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
