Answer: option (D).

Explanation: Nicholas fiddled with his thumbs, because, he didn’t dare look at his sister as she towered over him.

Commas are mostly used to divide or separate parts of a sentence in order to make the meaning clear and the sentence easier to read. Commas mark a brief pause in the sentence, usually at a point where you would naturally pause if you were speaking rather than writing.

Answer and Explanation:

I was only twelve. The gymnasium seemed so big, but this time it did not intimidate me. This one as well as others had intimidated me for weeks, but now I had conquered them. It had been my very first time competing in a volleyball tournament for my school, and we had won. All the nervousness and anxiety, all that yelling from the coach and teammates had been worth it. We lined up, side by side, facing the seats. My mother and younger brother were there, smiling, happy to see me happy. My mother had made a point of driving me to every single game and watching them to the very end. Somehow, it felt as if the medal I was about to receive was hers as much as it was mine.

All of a sudden, her presence was made even more important. Someone had the idea of inviting the parents onto the court to place the medals around our eager necks. No one else’s parents were there; at least for my team. I was sorry for them, but there she came. She was now everyone’s mother, giving each of my teammates their respective medals and a congratulatory hug. We were all her children for a moment, and sharing my mother had never made me happier.

NOTE: I based this in my real-life experience. Feel free to change anything in order to adapt it to your life.

How does voice affect the credibility of a text?
kolbaska11 [484]

The correct answer is:

The voice affects consistency of tone and the amount of bias revealed.

Explanation:

Voice, in literature, is what we hear when we read the work of a specific author, it is created by the format of the author's writing, while in a spoken language it would be the sound of the voice.

Tone, on the other hand, is the attitude and feelings of the author towards the writing, and it is reflected in the choice of words of the writer to express those feelings to the audience, in a spoken language it would be the actual tone of the voice when someone speaks. Voice affects consistency in tone and the amount of bias revealed because the format used to write a suspense novel, or an ironic comedy would change to express the actual purpose of the writing.
