Answer:
"The man ignored us and pressed on steadily."
Explanation:
By narrating from a first person point of view, the reader can experience the story as if he was in the narrator's shoes. In this type of point of view, the narrator refers to him or herself, therefore "I", "me", "my", "mine", "we", or "us", is used. This is characteristic of autobiographies for example, where we know the narrator's feeelings and thoughts from first hand. The other characters' feelings or thoughts can only be interpreted by the narrator but not known completely.
In this case the narrator uses us, which means he is the one telling the story from his/her perspective.

Entry B:
Knight, Jonas. "Controversial Judging at the Olympics." Time, 14 Feb. 2002, pp. 70-71.
Explanation:
Entry B is the correct entry because it fulfills the requirements of the MLA Citation Style.
MLA (Modern Language Association) Citation Style is the style that is usually used in the humanities. In the MLA style, there is the use of brief parenthetical citations in the text. This usually refer to an alphabetical list of works that are cited and which appear at the end of the work.

Author Last Name, Author First Name. "Article Title." Journal Title, Version, Number, Publication Date, Page Numbers.
The correct option is A.
The narration uses sensory details to increase the power of the narrative. Sensory details refers to those words in a passage which help readers to connect with what the narrator is saying by means of their five senses; that is, the senses of touch, taste, sight, smell and hearing.
Answer:
- <u><em>The bureau shall notify the public of a proposed action.</em></u>
Explanation:
The original sentence is in passive voice: the public is not performing the action but receiving it. The passive voice uses the verb 'to be' + the past participle of the main verb: "shall be" + "notified".
The focus of a passive voice sentence is on the object and not on the subject: the public is the object; they will receive the act of the subject which is the bureau.
To change the passive voice to <em>active voice</em>, place the person who performs the action in the first part and change the tense of the verb to active form.
The subject that performs the action is the bureau. Thus, the active voice is:
- <u>The bureau shall notify the public of a proposed action.</u>
<u></u>
Now, the focus of the sentence is on who performed the action; thus, this is the <em>active voice</em>.
