"A battery, a tumultuous and shining mass, was swirling toward the right. The wild thud of hoofs, the cries of the riders shouting blame and praise, menace and encouragement, and, last the roar of the wheels, the slant of the glistening guns, brought the lieutenant to an intent pause. The battery swept in curves that stirred the heart; it made halts as dramatic as the crash of a wave on the rocks..." This quote is from, "An Episode of War". . Is this realism or naturalism and why?

The correct answer is naturalism.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question we must first understand the difference between realism and naturalism.

On the one hand we have realism, which as its name implies, describes things to us as they are. No need to add emotions or feelings, it is just a description.

On the other hand we have naturalism, which although it is also responsible for describing things in a real way, it does so from a perspective of human behavior or violent emotions, as we can see in the quote given.

Given this information, we can say that the correct answer is naturalism.

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.

d is the best answer for this question.
