Anthony is quite capable in all academic areas, although not particularly self-motivated. Usually, he doesn't care about his gra

des, but if there's a contest for the highest score on an assignment, he suddenly comes alive! Immediately, his habits change as he studies for hours and digs up all kinds of minor facts about the subject. This explains why he brought home a blue ribbon from the science fair, yet made a D on his regular schoolwork.
What does the signal word yet tell you about Anthony's work?

He has had a change of attitude and will do better in his schoolwork now.

His schoolwork and performance at the science fair compare.

There is a contrast between his schoolwork and his project for the science fair.

The science fair judges were not careful scorers.

Answer:

There is a contrast between his schoolwork and his project for the science fair.

Explanation:

The word "<em>yet"</em> reinforces the facts described earlier in the passage.

The signal word <em>"yet"</em> states that, although he worked hard for science fair competition, yet he performed poorly in his regular school work because of lack of self-motivation. He needs to be motivated by tasks, competitions and challenges. He is not able to keep himself motivated throughout the regular schoolwork.

There is no hint to any change of attitude, he still had the same problem i.e performing poorly in regular schoolwork.

It is not comparison but it just proves that he lacks self-motivation in regular schoolwork.

It is not true that <em>the science fair judges were not careful scorers.</em><em> </em>He got ribbon from the science fair only because he worked hard and was motivated to perform good.

What element of the plot is this passage an example of
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Exposition

Explanation:

In these lines, we see an example of exposition. Exposition is the part of a text in which the author presents background information that the reader needs to know before reading the story. Exposition, therefore, is the first section of a text. In this case, the background information that readers need to know is that the setting has recently experienced a very destructive war. The character can remember the period before the war, and how the city was transformed.
