The correct answer is C. It adds credibility to a claim or argument.

Explanation:

Literary analysis are a type of academical papers in which the main purpose is to analyze, evaluate and examine different aspects of a work of literature, for example, a novel, poem, short story or play. This implies the author tries to explain relevant aspects for the literary work from his point of view, ideas and position about this, because of this, besides using her own words if Angie is writing a literary analysis using quotation or paraphrasing the play she is analyzing in the paper is necessary as these quotations or paraphrased ideas give some support to her words, this means using quotations show Angie's ideas  and arguments are consistent with the literary words and therefore are credible and can be believed. Thus, the purpose of textual evidence is to add credibility to a claim or argument.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

D. "a black shadow dropped down into the circle"

Explanation:

I believe this is the answer because it creates an ominous character, a shadow. Shadows are dark, scary, lost by light. It creates this fearful creature that can be a shadow wherever he stands. This makes Bagheera seem powerful and feared.

Hope this helps!

Match each type of detail with the appropriate example.
mote1985 [20]

Hello. You did not present the examples, which makes it impossible for pairs to be formed. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way, telling you the meaning of each one.

An example is something that aims to explain a situation, making it clearer and pointing out how it can be applied in a given situation. Ex: An example of an adjective and the word "cheerful" in the phrase "Moses is cheerful" because the word "cheerful" shows a characteristic of Moses.

An analogy is the transfer of meaning between two elements that have some relation or similarity. Ex: Love is like a ball. When we have it, we kick it.

An anecdote is a very small story, with humorous humor and with the aim of presenting a story quickly and in a comical way.
