Read this excerpt from The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum, and then answer the question that follows. When Dorothy was left alone

she began to feel hungry. So she went to the cupboard and cut herself some bread, which she spread with butter. She gave some to Toto, and taking a pail from the shelf she carried it down to the little brook and filled it with clear, sparkling water. Toto ran over to the trees and began to bark at the birds sitting there. Dorothy went to get him, and saw such delicious fruit hanging from the branches that she gathered some of it, finding it just what she wanted to help out her breakfast. Then she went back to the house, and having helped herself and Toto to a good drink of the cool, clear water, she set about making ready for the journey to the City of Emeralds. What point of view is used in the excerpt?

Speech Passage #1Instructions: Please read the passage below and answer the questions in full sentences.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The answer(s) are below

Explanation:

1. The main topic of this speech is, to not have the fear of growing up; consequentially graduating. It helps the reader understand that graduating is a big step in life and that it will happen sooner or later. it is just a fact of life, so the passage helps the person understand that instead of getting discouraged and giving up or being hyper prone to giving up because of someones opinion. The reader should do their best and accept the fact that graduating happens to every one and they should make the best of it.

2. The form of text being utilized is persuasive/inspirational, the entire preface of the passage (see comprehension question 1.) Is persuading students and young adults not to give up, and persevere, under this, it almost becomes and inspirational speech as well.

3. The supporting details for this persuasive excerpt/passage, are that the setting for this passage is almost as if there was a meeting, or a student council meeting, for young people as well as youngsters. Steve Jobs is quoted in this passage by saying "dream bigger" telling the audience to figuratively and literally, dream bigger and to not be afraid of failure because they can always get back on their feet some how. Another point that would not be considered supporting detailed but has come to my attention is the rhetoric used in this speech is so mature yet understanding of the current situation, it is amazing.

4. After reading the passage this speech seems to be targeted to young adults/teens graduating or soon to graduate. Although as with all speeches, there is a target audience, that does not mean that the speech is <em>only</em> for that audience. A teen recently enrolled into high school might find great comfort in this speech.

5. This speech could be further improved by, in my opinion, giving more examples. This text has given many examples, you just need to look hard. In my analyzing of passages one thing that usually sticks out to me is when a story does not have many examples, this passage has examples, and the ones it uses are very powerful; but having more examples just gives writing that extra flare and makes it even more enjoyable than it already is.

They said, "We have never been here <br> before."_________________________________
maw [93]

Answer:

They said they had never been <u>there</u> <u>before</u>.

Explanation:

According to the statement, this is Indirect or Reported Speech. It is normally used to talk about the past. So we commonly replace the tense of the words said. Reporting verbs are used. For example, 'say', 'tell', 'ask'. These words are even similar in meaning. Sometimes, we could use the word 'that' to explain the reported words.
