Answer:

OD. it indicates the number of paragraphs needed for each section.

Explanation:

The word "outline" refers to the summary of the whole text/ paper. In other words, the outline means the summarized version of the text, including the main important points.

A good outline is supportive of the thesis and also establishes the order and the relationship of the main points. It may contain the differences between the major and minor points but everything is connected and important for the paper. But one characteristic of a good outline that is wrong from the given options is that <u>an outline does not include the number of paragraphs required for each section.</u> This wholly depends on the author.

Read the passage from "The Lady, or the Tiger.”

My name is Ann [436]

This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find the complete question online. The choices are the following:

A. to reveal that the outcome of the trial is decided by luck.

B. to show that the verdict is predetermined.

C. to reveal that the defendants are in control of the verdict.

D. to emphasize that the trial is completely fair.

Answer:

The author's purpose for describing the two doors as absolutely identical is:

A. to reveal that the outcome of the trial is decided by luck.

Explanation:

"The Lady, or the Tiger" is a short story by American author and humorist Frank Richard Stockton (18340-1902). In the story, a king is described as semi-barbaric, which shows he is only partially civilized. He understands the importance of a trial to decide whether someone is guilty of a crime or not. However,<u> the trial he comes up with is absurd, and the outcome is decided by sheer luck.</u>

The person being accused of the crime is led to an arena. There, he is supposed to choose between two doors. Behind one of them, he will find a beautiful maiden. Behind the other one, he will find a tiger.<u> The doors are completely identical - nothing about them reveals what is behind them. Thus, it is really a matter of luck whether the man will choose the lady or the tiger.</u> If he chooses the door with the maiden, he is found innocent, and his reward is to marry her immediately. If he chooses the door with the tiger, he is found guilty, and his punishment is to be eaten by the animal.

<u>As we can see, it does not matter whether the person really committed a crime or not. What matters is how lucky he is to choose to right door.</u>
