Can I have Branliest for the Correct Answer?
Very often things like flashbacks, flash forwards, non-linear narratives, multiple plots and ensemble casts are regarded as optional gimmicks stuck into the conventional three act structure. They're not. Each of the six types I've isolated and their subcategories provides a different take on the same story material.  Suddenly, one idea for a film can give you a multitude of story choices. What do I mean?

More than six ways to turn your idea into a film. Let's imagine that you've read a newspaper article about soldiers contracting a respiratory disease from handling a certain kind of weaponry. You want to write a film about it. Conventional wisdom says create one storyline with one protagonist (a soldier who gets the disease) and follow that protagonist through a three act linear journey.  There's no question that you could make a fine film out of that. But there are several other ways to make a story out of the idea,  and several different messages that you could transmit - by using one of the parallel narrative forms.

<span>Would you like to create a script about a  group of soldiers from the same unit who contract the disease together during one incident, with their relationships disintegrating or improving as they get sicker, dealing with the group dynamic and unfinished emotional business?  That would be a shared team 'adventure', which is a kind of group story, so you would be using what I call </span>Multiple Protagonist<span> form (the form seen in films like Saving Private Ryan or The Full Monty or Little Miss Sunshine, where a group goes on a quest together and we follow the group's adventure, the adventure of each soldier, and the emotional interaction of each soldier with the others). </span>

Alternatively, would you prefer your soldiers not to know each other, instead, to be in different units, or even different parts of the world,  with the action following each soldier into a separate story that shows a different version of the same theme, with  all of the stories running in parallel in the same time frame and making a socio-political comment about war and cannon fodder?  If so, you need what I call tandem narrative,<span> the form of films like Nashville or Traffic. </span>

Alternatively, if you want to tell a series of stories (each about a different soldier) consecutively, one after the other, linking the stories by plot or theme (or both)  at the end, you'll  need what, in my book Screenwriting Updated I called 'Sequential Narrative', but now, to avoid confusion with an approach to conventional three act structure script of the same name, I term Consecutive Stories<span> form, either in its fractured state  (as in Pulp Fiction or Atonement), or in linear form (as in The Circle). </span>

I think it would be A. Leave it as is, because the other answers don't sound right, or don't have any commas.

Hope this helped! :)

Answer:

Explanation:

Right Pane.

We are back to Ivan. We found out how he felt about getting married. He was not thrilled, he was not head over heals. He was ... accepting. He was cold blooded like a reptile. He weighed carefully what he thought were her virtues.

  • She was passable good looking.
  • She had property, and he hoped income.
  • She was acceptable to the society he lived in.
  • What's not to like? So he married.

The third one is not a big consideration, but it is a consideration. The fact that she was proper added to what he thought of her.

So what to pick?

The last three are not mentioned. So they are not a consideration. He doesn't say, for example, that he yearns for company.

Is there a comment in there about the middle class? Not even inferred. So B is incorrect.

Though it is a minor consideration, A has to be your answer.

Center Pane

Terror, aborrance, decay, suggestive shadows. All these things are present. But he is also thrilled by them. Complex man. He appeals to us for the same reason some people go to horror movies just to be scared out of their minds.

I'd pick B but you could defend at least 3 of them.

Left Pane

I'd pick the first and the last.

You haven't got time to do much else. Certainly the 3rd one is out of the question. I don't think you should be doing the fourth one. Let your essay do that for you. And the second one is almost irrelevant at this point.

First and last.

Lee forgets to write down the details regarding
tatiyna

Answer: Wild Goose Chase

Explanation:

Plagiarism is a big issue in the academic and journalistic world ( indeed any subject that has to do with writing) and it is worthy of note that it does not mean simply copying a person's work to pass as your own. It can also mean failing to give proper credit where it is due.

This is the form of plagiarism that the Wild Goose Chase plagiarism is. It involves using the works of an author but instead of correctly citing them so due credit is given, the writer instead uses other sources either real or made up which is what Lee did in her blog post.

It is called a Wild Goose Chase because somebody aiming to verifying the information will not find the information where they were supposed to meaning that the writer had sent them on a wild goose chase.
