Answer: The right answer is the D) Wallace uses dialogue to show the conflict that can occur between inner perceptions of self and outside perceptions of self.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that in this extract from Wallace's famous novel, <em>Infinite Jest</em>, the author is primarily using dialogue in order to show the conflict that can occur when an inner perception of yourself differs from the perceptions that others have of you. The dialogue here, however, takes the form of a soliloquy, since the character is the only one talking. The character is voicing out loud what he seems to be thinking, in an attempt to defend himself from an alleged accusation - "I am not just a jock," "The grades are mine," "I cannot make myself understood." The use of direct speech makes the text more vivid. The author is using neither objective facts nor characters' actions, so options A and B should be discarded. He is not using descriptions either, so option C should be discarded too.

JUST NEED A THESIS STATEMENT*****
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Okay, so in this case, you have to compare these two characters- Harrison Bergeron and Jay Gatsby. While I have limited knowledge about Jay, I can still lead you through this. Now we need to find ways that these two characters are similar, different, how they would interact with each other, and what would happen if they were in modern times. Now, this may seem like a lot, but we can make this work. Harrison is from the future, while Jay is from the past, which is a good difference. What about their personalities? What can you find that is similar? How do they act in certain situations? If you can provide a simple answer to some of these, I can help guide you through it in comments below.
