Why would an author choose to employ a flashback to interrupt the chronological order of a narrative?

English
1 answer:
NISA [10]3 years ago
5 0
While all the answers have a degree of validity, option C is the most correct one. Flashbacks are essentially a narrative technique that allows the author to break the usual monotony of storytelling by jumping back and forth between events and turning a linear story (from point A to point B) into a circular one (from point B to point C through point A, for instance).

Using your knowledge of roots, choose the best word to complete the following sentence:
Aneli [31]

<span>1.    </span><span>Mark had a gift for empathy; he seemed to be able to relate to anyone’s pain and sorrow. </span>

<span>2.    </span><span>Over the summer, many people plan to travel to exotic places, and play at the beach. </span>

<span>3.    </span>The short excerpt uses “I” repeatedly. I would suggest that she erases the repeated “I” and replace them with something else.

<span>4.    </span>I am guessing that the underlined is “good at listening and feeling my pain”? I would suggest to replace that with the word “sentimental.”

<span>5.    </span>A synonym for “faithfulness” is fidelity.

<span>6.    </span><span>I never thought I would have to write and deliver the eulogy of anyone, let alone my best friend.<span> </span></span>

Answer:

The little girl in the story was the wisest character because of the kindness she showed to the Chenoo.

Explanation:

When the three brothers noticed the footprints in the North, South, and West, they disregarded it as the footprint of a bear. The girl in the story, however, believed that it was the Chenoo and she made provisions for it. She made a fire for it and prepared a meal for the Chenoo.

The monster was surprised at the welcome given by the little girl. This calmed him down and prevented him from attacking the girl and her brothers.

List four things to look for when you're proofreading
dezoksy [38]

Spelling. Word choice. Consistency. Style. <span>

When you proofread (which is different from editing, by the way), you’ll really just be going over your writing for small mistakes/typos that may have slipped by you earlier in the writing process. Proofreading can be considered a type of “polishing up,” if you will, of a document before it is finalized. You’ll be on the lookout for little errors such as spelling errors and misused words/word choice—words that spell check may have missed because spell check generally only catches misspelled words, not correctly spelled words used incorrectly such as “their” when “there” should have been used or “two” when “too” should have been used. 

Additionally, when we are writing/typing, typically, our minds work more quickly than do our fingers. Thus, our fingers may miss words we intended for them to type. Too, our minds are such powerful things, if we read over our work too soon after typing, we’ll read our writing as we intended for it to be written, not as it actually is. 

Other things to look out for are consistency and style. When looking for consistency, it is important to make sure you are using the correct verb tense throughout because when speaking, we tend to switch tense for effect, and it is easy to let our speaking mannerisms find their way into what we are writing. 

On the topic of that, many of us often use clichés and figurative language when speaking, and this is something for which to be on the lookout when proofreading because we tend to speak figuratively in our daily lives so much so that when writing, we don’t even know we are doing it, and in academic writing, it is always best to be as literal as possible.</span>
