Answer:

An author might choose to use words with a neutral connotation instead of words with a positive or negative connotation for the following reason:

The author does not want to sound biased.

Explanation:

There is a clear purpose for an author to choose to use words with a neutral connotation: he or she does not want anyone to think they are taking sides. They want to be impartial, that is, unprejudiced and with no display of bias. The story, article or whatever kind of writing the author engages on is then presented in a neutral manner, which allows readers to form their own opinions in a much more natural and spontaneous way, rather than being, even subtly, influenced by the author's personal points of view, which become more apparent when words with a positive or a negative connotation are used instead of words with neutral connotation.

An opinion most suitable to answer the question:

It might or may be early in the story and the author may not want the reader to form an opinion yet or perhaps the author is describing a minor detail and does not want to draw extra attention to it that could detract from something more important happening in the story.

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England.
Leno4ka [110]

The correct answer is A. During the Elizabethan period, food was often scarce.

Explanation

According to the passage, it can be inferred that the food was scarce because the excerpt shows arguments such as its value exceeded the price of an average single-family house. In addition, transportation was another factor that increased the value of food, so it largely depended on local cultivation. So the correct answer is A. During the Elizabethan period, food was often scarce.

What is the theme of the poem "choices" by nikki giovanni
Helen [10]
In the poem it talks about us as people not having the choices we think we should or believe we should have. My theme statement is that maybe sometimes what we expect we should have isnt always going to be for us .The poem talks about choices and on top of that going into further research, Giovanni created this poem right after her father died. The poem basically is saying that we don't have the choices we think we should have or believe but we know that life is short.
