The following sentences contain a dangling modifier error. Write a corrected version of the sentence.

1. Looking out the hotel window, distant snowcapped mountain shine darkly against the sky.

2. As a child, my parents urged me to learn a good trade.

Number 1 is much like the example Vocaloid helped you through

It seems here that the mountains are looking out, which is incorrect. You could say 'As I was looking out...' or 'Looking out the hotel window, I saw...'

2. 
It seems like the child refers to your parents. You can invert the sentence to fix it
