To <em>Build a Fire </em>is a naturalist tale and naturalism was a literary movement that aimed to provide an accurate, scientific depiction of reality without any kind of literary embellishment. With regards to this specific story: this event is important because it sets in motion the chain of events that will ultimately result in the main character's death. London uses the objective tone because it allows the reader to fully comprehend what this event potentially means for the perspective on the future survival of the man. The very factual and somewhat scientific tone conveys the accurate author's knowledge of the subject, rendering the situation more vivid and real for the reader.

What is the correct MLA format for a focus paragraph
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Type your paper on a computer and print it out on standard, white 8.5 x 11-inch paper.

Double-space the text of your paper and use a legible font (e.g. Times New Roman). Whatever font you choose, MLA recommends that the regular and italics type styles contrast enough that they are each distinct from one another. The font size should be 12 pt.

Leave only one space after periods or other punctuation marks (unless otherwise prompted by your instructor).

Set the margins of your document to 1 inch on all sides.

Indent the first line of each paragraph one half-inch from the left margin. MLA recommends that you use the “Tab” key as opposed to pushing the space bar five times.

Create a header that numbers all pages consecutively in the upper right-hand corner, one-half inch from the top and flush with the right margin. (Note: Your instructor may ask that you omit the number on your first page. Always follow your instructor's guidelines.)

Use italics throughout your essay to indicate the titles of longer works and, only when absolutely necessary, provide emphasis.

If you have any endnotes, include them on a separate page before your Works Cited page. Entitle the section Notes (centered, unformatted).

Read the following sentence and determine if the words in bold are homographs or homophones. Then, choose the answer that correc
sergejj [24]

Guessing the words you are comparing are "plain" and "plains" the correct answer is C. Homophone; the two words are pronounced the same but have different meanings and sometimes different spellings. Because <em>plain</em> and <em>plains</em> are words that sound alike; but they have different meanings as in "<em>plain</em> cream cheese" the word plain means to be pure while the word <em>plains</em> in the part "crossing the plains in Kansas" is referring to the extensive area of Kansas country; lastly they have slightly different spellings as plain and plain<em>s</em>.

Option A. Homograph is wrong because the correct definition is two words are written the same, not pronounced the same.

Option B. Homophone is wrong because the correct definition is two words are pronounced the same, not written the same.

Option D. Homograph is wrong because in this case they are written the same as the <em>bear </em>(the verb to carry) and the <em>bear </em>(the animal). But for <em>plain</em> and <em>plains</em> they are not identical as one has a <em>S.</em>
