Explanation:
Example: “Gracefully, she sat beside him on the moss” (Barron, 185).
This question is missing the answer choices. I have found them online. They are the following:
1. Creativity is limitless and never-ending.
2. Only those who take risks can be creative.
3. In order to be creative, you must be reckless.
4. There is a time limit on our creativity.
Answer:
The statement which is best supported by the quotations is:
1. Creativity is limitless and never-ending.
Explanation:
Both Maya Angelou and Kurt Vonnegut were famous authors. Angelou was a civil-rights activist and poet born in Missouri in 1928. Vonnegut was born in Indiana in 1922, and his stories famously used satire and postmodern elements.
<u>Even though the two quotes sound very different, they are both describing creativity as limitless. Angelou says it in a more direct way: the more we use creativity, the more we have it. It is never-ending. Vonnegut, on the other hand, uses a metaphor to say the same thing. If creativity is like jumping off a cliff, we must keep on doing it over and over again. Creativity is not something you use or do only once. It is continuous. For those reasons, the best option seems to be number 1. Creativity is limitless and never-ending.</u>
NOTE: The question asks for only one statement. However, in case more than one option can be chosen, number 2 could also be checked.
