The main conflict is defeating the storm.
Actually a convergence of three storms onto one Geographic location. Yikes!
Other conflicts include the shrimper's need to make more money by taking one last trip out to sea even though it was the dangerous season. The shrimper's wives obviously don't want them to go out again as they worry and don't like to be alone.
The shrimp boat owner encourages one last trip as he wants more money as well.
The shrimpers risk losing their jobs if they refuse to make the last trip.

<h3>What is the best statement that describes the given Excerpt?</h3>

The excerpt is from the story of the heart of a samurai.

We are given different statements from the given story as an excerpt. Now, let us analyze the given statements;

1) The way he talks about the bird and how it shook his friend clearly indicates suspense as to what happened next.

2) The way he said Goemon closed his eyes again if it was a bird makes one wonder what could have happened if the bird had landed nearby. Thus, this is suspense.

3) Lastly, we are told that s the boat drifted toward it, the dark line grew into a tall, looming shape: an island. This is symptomatic of a Suspense story.

Thus, we can conclude that the best statement that tells us how the excerpt keeps readers interested in the story is; A: It creates suspense.

Read the following excerpt from Anne Frank Remembered by Miep Gies.
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

What would you have done if you had found Anne's diary pages in the midst of the chaos.

This has a lot of sub questions.

Why do you suppose the Nazis didn't take those pages?

What do you think those pages said?

What would have been thinking when the writing stopped?

It tells you what happened to the rest of the people who were in the attic. Only Mr. Frank survived. So I wouldn't pick that unless a teacher intended to go into a study of the Holocaust.

Which three lines in this excerpt from Anita Desai’s "Games at Twilight" clearly show an omniscient narrator?
Archy [21]

The three lines that show an omniscient narrator are "They faced the afternoon," "Thee children, too, felt released," and "They too began tumbling..."

<h3>What is an omniscient narrator?</h3>

The narrator is the one telling us the story. An omniscient narrator is a type of narrator that knows everything, that is, who can tell us about the thoughts and actions of all characters rather than just one or a few.

Thus, we must choose the lines that show the narrator in "Games at Twilight" knows about all characters. In this case, the three best options are:

  • "They faced the afternoon."
  • "Thee children, too, felt released."
  • "They too began tumbling, shoving, pushing against each other."
