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.

5. According to Scrooge's nephew, what is Christmas?
vovangra [49]

<em>For Scrooge, Christmas is nothing but a fraud or a humbug and not a reason to be happy for a celebration because he has no money or poor. His nephew (Fred) answered him that although they are poor, it is still a reason to celebrate because it is that one time of the year where people rejoice and open up presents and hearts.</em>
