Answer:
The idea that kites are skillful fliers is all throughout the text. Both in comparison and in contrast with birds, the author develops the concept of a kite as if an actual living bird, and as one, it has its own skills and characteristics.
Explanation:
The text begins with a general overview on raptors, and then he says: "The most glorious feathers of the peacock or the vibrant plumage of a bunting cannot compete with the power of a peregrine falcon or the determination of an osprey. Included in this group of hunters, however, is one bird of prey that is little known but equally impressive. The kites of the world are generally smaller than most raptors, but just as astonishing in skill and grace as any other hunter of the skies." Here, we have the very first moment in which kites are seen as skillful fliers.
Then, he/she goes on with its characteristics and the author itself states that "kites are generally masterful in the air and represent a group of birds that are among the most acrobatic of fliers." To continue with this idea of kites as living birds, the author claims "if you are lucky enough to see one in flight, you will be amazed at the quick turns, graceful moves, and speedy pursuits of this bird". With this, he/she's comparing a situation which sightseers are very familiar with: the difficulty of seeing the most majestic birds. "Look for them above large fields, especially during the summer" completes this concept by giving you the place where you can find them, because he/she knows they are graceful and you should not miss them.
Finally, the author gives us the idea of kites being like birds when he describes them physically and compares them with "common birds" which cannot catch their preys while flying: "Both kites are known to eat while flying, unlike most other birds of prey. This practice conserves energy and allows them to hunt almost continuously".
I think the answer is D. Only the second paragraph repeats the term "We should."
The correct answer is A. It starts with very specific details, devoid of any emotional interfering on the narrator's part. The only subjective detail in this line is the estimation "very strange". Still, it doesn't disturb the factuality of the context, which is firmly rooted in precise time and place references.
Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:
suggesting that she (the speaker in the poem) prefers hardcover books to paperbacks
setting up (preparing to show) how important Mrs. Long would be to the speaker
pointing out how difficult it was for the speaker to access books when she was a child
explaining that no one had any idea of what the speaker was going through
Answer:
setting up (preparing to show) how important Mrs. Long would be to the speaker
Explanation:
The poem's subtitle reinforces the importance of the speaker and the experiences she has to tell. This establishes Mrs. Long as a central part of the poem, as it is she who will explain the subtitle, placing the reader in relation to the message emitted by the poem. In this case, we can say that the subtitle is important for the development of the poem, as it prepares Mrs. Long as the speaker, who will narrate the poem.
