As interest is to absorbing
Word choice, also known as diction, is the words a writer chooses to use in their writing based on a number of components.
It wouldn't make sense for a writer to not know the meaning of a word and still use it in their writing, so "meaning of words," is included.
Vocabulary is included as well. Diction and vocabulary are pretty much the same thing.
Level of formality is included because you can tell if a writing is formal or informal based on the word choices the writer uses. For example, if a writer writes "There are a lot of things to do in New York City," that would be informal since there are better words to use than "a lot" and "things." To make it formal, it could be "There are numerous activities to do in New York City."
Therefore, when analyzing word choice the "pronunciation," is not included.
The purpose of nonfiction writing is to inform and educate the reader
The narrator's regret makes him more thoughtful and reflective about his choices and the people he will be involved with in the future.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- "The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant," tells the story of a fisherman who is in love with his neighbor, Sheila, and invites her on a date.
- She accepts the invites, but hates the moment when she finds out that the date will be on his boat.
- He says that he likes fishing and being on the boat, in the water, but realizes that Sheila doesn't share this feeling and that he's not enjoying the ride.
- At this point, a very large fish pulls the fishing net that the fisherman left in the boat. This causes the boat to shake violently and the fisherman must decide whether to hold the fish or to hold Sheila so she doesn't fall into the water.
- He decides to hold Sheila but regrets it.
The fisherman regrets this decision because he loves fishing and that fish would be a great victory for his life, Sheila, however, did not seem all that interesting.
This makes the narrator rethink his actions for the future and rethink the people he wants to be close to him, as it is better to avoid people who despise his interests, like Sheila.
