The answer is D because the tension would be counted as rising action, which leads up to the climax. A counts as exposition, B is opinion and fact, and C is resolution.

D. <em>To move the reader toward the climax of the story</em> This is the correct naswer.

Authors create tension to engage the readers. Tension is what makes a story  worth reading since it will touch or move the reader's feelings. The reader's rational side will be set aside by his/ her emotions.

These answers are not right:

A. To introduce the characters in the story and describe where the story takes place  ( This is part of the setting).

B. To reveal the author's personal bias and opinion ( The opinion should be infered through the whole story , not jut through the tension in it).

C. To neatly tie up loose ends at the story's close ( The tension leads to the climax not to the end of the story),

Which three sentences in this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Day of Infamy” speech make an emotional appeal by suggesting
sergij07 [2.7K]

1. "Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area." - Here Roosevelt uses the word "surprise offensive" wich emphasizes the innocence of the United States. Thay hadn't done anything to Japan, and were attacked by surprise. And by using the word "undertaken" which states that the japanese took the initiative.

2. "Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us." Here Roosevelt makes sure people don´t forget that this attack was unjustified and very violent. By saying "against us" he wants people to feel angry and to do something against the attackers.

3. "I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastarly attack by Japan on Sunday, December Seventh, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire." By using "unprovoked" he says again that the United States are not guilty from anything but victims of a treachery. At the same time he uses "dastarly" making the japanese responsable from the attack, making them guilty and without any justification.
