What is the author's purpose in this excerpt from "A Witch Trial at Mount Holly"?

English

Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is A.

The purpose of this passage is to inform the reader regarding the events of the witch trial. We are told that suspected witches were to be tried using the Scales, and that each suspected witch was first searched to see if they had anything heavy in their pockets.

This passage provides quite a bit of information about the witch trial; it is not trying to persuade, entertain, or debate -- the purpose of this passage is to inform.

Answer: Some values important to people in the new nation were individualism, to be respected, and self reliance. They had no care in the world for people that didn't have these character aspects. Resources Brainly.com, Vintageamericanways.com, and coursehero.com helped me understand that people that weren't respected would not be listened to. They also wanted them to not have too many friends, and to rely on themselves for answers they needed. They found their information from researching instead of asking, so that their answers were always correct. Not rumors.
