Answer:

An author’s purpose is his reason for or intent in writing.

An author’s purpose may be to amuse the reader, to persuade the reader, to

inform the reader, or to satirize a condition.

An author writes with one of four general purposes in mind:

1. To relate a story or to recount events, an author uses narrative

writing.

2. To tell what something looks like, sounds like, or feels like, the

author uses descriptive writing

3. To convince a reader to believe an idea or to take a course of

action, the author uses persuasive writing.

4. To inform or teach the reader, the author uses expository writing.

An author’s purpose is reflected in the way he writes about a topic. For

instance, if his purpose is to amuse, he will use jokes or anecdotes in his

writing.

Clues to an author’s purpose may be found in titles, prefaces, and the author’s

background.

When does Lady Macbeth confess her crimes.
Nezavi [6.7K]
The famous "Out- Out" speech by Lady Macbeth in Act 5 Scene 1 ranks as one of the most performed Shakespearean sequences throughout the world. Part of the reason for this soliloquy's fame is how expertly Shakespeare interweaves lines from earlier in the play to present a woman sliding from guilt into madness.

Direct object.
The direct object receives the action of a verb in a sentence.
The indirect object represents to whom or for whom something is said.
Ex: Sandra gave the book to Tom.
Sandra is receiving the action: she gives the book
Tom is the one getting the object
