A) Linking traditional American Native stories B) to historic records of a Japanese tsunami
C) was considered an exception, not the start D) of a fruitful geological collaboration.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Linking traditional American Native stories

Explanation:

In 1 part, use of 'Native' after ‘American’ is incorrect. Also ‘traditional’ should come before ‘stories’. Native is an adjective that is used here for American and not stories. So native will come before American. Traditional is used as an adjective for stories. This is a case of misplaced modifiers.Hence 1 is the correct choice.
