Read this excerpt from "A Retrieved Reformation." On the Monday night after Jimmy wrote this letter, Ben Price jogged unobtrusiv

ely into Elmore in a livery buggy. He lounged about town in his quiet way until he found out what he wanted to know. From the drug-store across the street from Spencer's shoe-store he got a good look at Ralph D. Spencer. "Going to marry the banker's daughter are you, Jimmy?" said Ben to himself, softly. "Well, I don't know!" What can the reader predict based on the foreshadowing in the passage above? Ben Price will ruin Jimmy’s plan to marry Annabel. Jimmy will discover Ben Price has tracked him down. Ben Price will allow Jimmy to go free. Jimmy will use the banker’s daughter to rob the bank.

This is writing that communicates specific information about a particular subject, craft, or occupation.
lapo4ka [179]

There are four different types of writing: expository, persuasive, descriptive and narrative.  While one could say that descriptive could describe a particular subject, craft, or occupation, descriptive writing is more for describing a character, event, or special place.  Persuasive is trying to persuade your audience to think one way, and narrative is used to tell a story.  Expository writing is used to communicate specific information about a particular subject, craft, or occupation.

The Alchemist (Book)
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The message I get from this is that while there is much to be seen in the world, we must not lose sight of our primary responsibilities in life. For Santiago (according to the King of Salem), every person has a responsibility to pursue his or her Personal Legend. Nothing else can be as important. In doing so, all the things that are significant in life will eventually come to the person who stays focused anyway. When the boy in the story does not spill the oil, he has missed everything around him. If the boy is spilling the oil, he is losing sight of his original goal, losing focus because of the things he sees in the world as he moves about. Soon, his task of carrying the oil safely has been forgotten, and the oil gone—much like the loss of an exceptional opportunity when one is distracted from one's purpose.

The King of Salem is telling Santiago to see all that he can of the world. (This make sense, for how can Santiago follow omens or learn the Universal Language, etc., if he does not observe the world around him?) However, Melchizedek is also reminding Santiago not to be distracted by what he sees so much that he loses sight of his purpose in life: he must maintain a balance on his journey.

HOPE IT HELPS :)

Which excerpt from gerard manley hopkins "spring and fall" describes grief as a self-centered act?
Vesna [10]
<span>Good Morning!
 
The following quotation, by restricting suffering to the heart, indicates that it is impossible for the other to recognize in you the pain you feel. It is thus pain, a selfish attitude.
