What is the text structure of the following paragraph? The chief and immediate cause of the Civil War was slavery. Southern states, including the 11 states that
formed the Confederacy, depended on slavery to support their economy. Southerners used slave labor to
produce crops, especially cotton. Although slavery was illegal in the Northern states, only a small proportion
of Northerners actively opposed it. The main debate between the North and the South on the eve of the war
was whether slavery should be permitted in the Western territories recently acquired during the Mexican War
(1846-1848), including New Mexico, part of California, and Utah. Opponents of slavery were concerned
about its expansion, in part because they did not want to compete against slave labor.

type of error:

the error in the sentence is a "dangling modifier". a dangling modifier is a phrase, word or clause that "dangles" because there is not target to modify. in this case, "after mopping the floor" is the dangling modifier since it has no word to modify. the noun "house" cannot mop the floor; therefore there is a mistake in the writing of the sentence.

yeah it is i have the dark knight

throughout history, economists have always thought  ..

21 balloons is the story of professor william sherman's travels.

in 1883, he set off from san francisco for a balloon ride over the pacific and was found a month later floating with 21 balloons in the atlantic ocean. this seemed an astounding feat and everyone wanted to know what had happened.    

professor sherman was loyal, however, and said he would tell his tale first to the western american explorers club in san francisco, of which he was a member. this built up suspense for several chapters before he began to tell of the wonders of his adventures and the amazing island of krakatoa, an island which had just been blown up by a volcano.  

the residents of krakatoa are all millionaires who live under a "gourmet government" of their own devising. we get to see all the incredible adventures that creative people with unlimited resources would create according to the author.
