Which sentence reflects the theme of magic in this excerpt from “The Story of the Old Man Who Made Withered Trees to Flower” by

Yei Theodora Ozaki?
The old man now tucked up his kimono and made ready to climb the tree. Saying “Excuse me,” he took the pot of ashes which he had brought with him, and began to climb the tree, every one watching his movements with great interest.
At last he climbed to the spot where the tree divided into two great branches, and taking up his position here, the old man sat down and scattered the ashes right and left all over the branches and twigs.
Wonderful, indeed, was the result! The withered tree at once burst into full bloom! The Daimio was so transported with joy that he looked as if he would go mad. He rose to his feet and spread out his fan, calling the old man down from the tree.He himself gave the old man a wine cup filled with the best sake, and rewarded him with much silver and gold and many other precious things. The Daimio ordered that henceforth the old man should call himself by the name of Hana-Saka-Jijii, or “The Old Man who makes the Trees to Blossom,” and that henceforth all were to recognize him by this name, and he sent him home with great honor.

A framed narrative happens when the author uses a story and its characters to tell you another story (a story within a story... a storynception). Here, we can observe a character doing a grand opening, and he starts to introduce a character when he says "<span><em>I want to tell you of a marquis, whose actions, even though things turned out well for him in the end, were remarkable not so much for their munificence as for their senseless brutality."

</em>Therefore, you best answer is option B.<em>

8. Match each sentence with the sentence pattem.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The verb play is not generally a linking verb, but it can be used as a linking verb. A linking verb links noun+ noun, pronoun + noun, noun+ adjective, or pronoun + adjective. As it is generally used, the verb play is an action verb: "I play football." It could be used as a linking verb: "The actor played James Bond." (noun + noun)
