4 0

Explanation:

Like most truly suspenseful and horrifying moment, whether in theatre, film, or television, what an audience imagines is far more gruesome than anything that they can actually watch. This makes the blinding far more effective offstage.

In addition, as all classical Greek plays were performed with masks, this made it possible for the actor to come back with a different mask to show the change and thus create a visual cue for the audience.

Javier presented the following research question for a history class.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The best statement which describe Javier's research question is:

O. It is specific but not too narrow, and is phrased to allow for an in-depth response.

Explanation:

From the question which was asked by Javier, we could see that, he asked a specific question in his question to obtain the positive or negative effect og life in Japan as a result of Treaty of San Francisco.

On the other-hand, it is not too narrow due to the fact that, the effect could range from education, to history or from military hardware to medical researches. <em>It is phrased to allow for in-depth response which would take up all the time in the history class while not providing opportunities for all students to contribute within the allocated time frame. </em>
