How does the author advance the plot through the use of the Reverend's character? The author presents the Reverend as an eager p

articipant in military planning, which validates his patriotic heritage. The author presents the Reverend as a close observer of the Russian military, which suggests his alliance with the enemy. The author presents the Reverend as an admirer of Scoresby’s manners, which causes suspicion about the Reverend’s conclusion. The author presents the Reverend as an eyewitness to multiple examples of Scoresby's good fortune, which adds reliability to his account.

Answer:

The author presents the Reverend as an eyewitness to multiple examples of Scoresby's good fortune, which adds reliability to his account.

Explanation:

According to the book "Luck" by Mark Twain, the story is told of an English war hero Lord Scoresby who is a total idiot but managed to achieve legendary status by sheer luck. The Reverend was an instructor to Scoresby at military academy and tells how Scoresby somehow got through military school even though he is a complete idiot.

Therefore the author advances the plot through the use of the Reverend character by presenting Reverend as an eyewitness which adds reliability and credibility to his account.

In this excerpt from Little Women, how do the similarities and differences of the four March sisters help propel the plot? Expla
trapecia [35]

Answer:

The similarities and differences of the four March sisters help propel the plot because the reader won't be able to determine how the situation would end.  To illustrate, Jo is the "man of the family" and is very confident, Beth is shy Amy is selfish, and Meg is  the leader of the sisters. For example, the author states, "I'm the oldest," began Meg, but Jo cut in with a decided, "I'm the man of the family now while papa is away..." (Source one). This shows how Jo claims to be the man of family, even though Meg is the oldest. Secondly, the author states, " I only meant to change the little bottle for a big one, and I gave all my money to get it, and I'm truly trying not to be selfish any more," (Source one). Amy is trying to be less selfish which the reader would not have expected. In conclusion, the four sisters similarities and differences propel the plot in ways that the reader might not have been able to predict.

Simplifying the point of view of the opposed position meaning?
torisob [31]

This refers to breaking down the argument of the opponent. Say if you were both participating in a debate. You have to be able to reiterate the argument of your opponent, but that involves you spinning your own twist in the meaning.

Answer:

It looks good.

Explanation:

It could use some more Textual Evidence to Support it though.

A basic paragraph structure usually consists of five sentences: the topic sentence, three supporting sentences, and a concluding sentence. But the secrets to paragraph writing lay in four essential elements, which when used correctly, can make a okay paragraph into a great paragraph.
