"Water Never Hurt A Man" is a story by Walter Edmond, a classic historical fiction. He talks about the initiation of growing up, the transition from a state of decency to an adult man. The process that carries a certain dose of pain and suffering, but as a necessary means of growing up. The purpose of these sufferings is to overcome fears, what has once hurt, becomes a force. During a painful upbringing, water does not hurt a man, water leads to the necessary cracking during growing up, takes the adolescent out of hiding and faces him with maturity.

Which best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt?
vova2212 [387]

I have found this question online, and it is about the short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," by Mark Twain. The excerpt is long for me to post here, but it begins with the story told by Simon Wheeler, one of the characters.

Answer:

The option that best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt is:

A. with the use of dialect.

Explanation:

When it comes to literature, dialect is related to how the author portrays the characters' speech. Many authors choose to write words with an uncommon spelling just to show that that is the way the character pronounces them. For instance, in books by Zora Neale Hurston, what should be "I" was spelled as "Ah" to emphasize pronunciation.

<u>The same happens in this short story by Mark Twain. The excerpt we are analyzing here uses dialect to reveal more about the character. For example, Wheeler says "feller" instead of "fellow". Twain wants readers to know that Wheeler is a simple man, in contrast with the narrator of the story who is an educated man and who uses a very different (formal) dialect from Wheeler.</u>
