Read the following excerpt from the article "Vision, Voice and the Power of Creation: An Author Speaks Out," by T. A. Barron, an

d answer the question that follows: Another way to tap the power of imagination is through place. My own background as a writer is rooted in nature, having grown up reading Henry David Thoreau, Rachel Carson, and John Muir long before I ever dipped into Madeleine L'Engle, Lloyd Alexander, Ursula Le Guin, E. B. White, or J.R.R. Tolkien. My early writings were really nature journals; at nine, I wrote a complete biography-of a tree. (It was a once-majestic chestnut tree not far from my home.) So it should come as no surprise that I view place as much more than just a setting for a story. It is, in truth, another form of character, no less alive and complex, mysterious and contradictory, than the richest character in human form. What does this paragraph imply about the way the author would treat the setting in his work?

T. A. Barron would treats setting on par with characters--equally as alive and complex.

The author T. A. Barron discusses how he had authored a text about a tree that was, what he noted as, a tree’s biography.  It should be noted, however, that even though a tree is alive, a tree is typically understood to be inanimate because it is not alive in the same was as an animal.  This means that whenever trees are mentioned in writing, they are typically just background/part of the setting.  That said, by noting he had written a tree’s biography and considers trees characters, what that implies is that he, too, would treat setting in his work as alive and on equal ground as a regular characters because of the way he considers trees (what are typically just part of the setting) as tantamount with animate objects.

Explanation: The author says: "I view place as much more than just a setting for a story. It is, in truth, another form of character"

Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

the answer is D. Some of the world’s highest waterfalls can be found in three countries: Venezuela, South Africa, and Peru.

a colon in a sentence means the auther can end the sentence with a period if he wanted and the sentence would still be correct.

in this case the sentence could be, "Some of the world’s highest waterfalls can be found in three countries."

this still looks and sounds correct and is a fully functioning sentence.

Think about all of the characters Wells includes in The Time Machine; how would you evaluate Wells’s character development in th
kodGreya [7K]

HG Wells develops his characters in a very coherent and objective way in the story, allowing each character to extend the reader's understanding of the text.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Wells is a very effective author in character development.
  • This is because he allows each character to show a different aspect of the story that allows the reader to have a greater understanding of all elements of the narrative.
  • In the time traveler, for example, we can see the importance of science, the dangers of observing strange worlds, and the adaptability of human beings.
  • Weena's development shows the need for contact and evolution without responsibility, furthermore, it shows how advancement and high evolution can trigger negative characteristics.
  • The development of the Morlocks shows the reader the strength of the working class and the danger of neglecting it.

In this case, we can see that in "The Time Machine," Wells uses character development to show specific elements and characteristics of society and human life in general.
