How does the setting shape the characters or plot?
seraphim [82]

The setting is the place, location, time and etc. The setting could influence the characters to be a specific way. It's a key detail, and changing that detail could change the way the characters see, feel, or act. Often times, if the setting is changed, the entire story would be different. The plot also depends on the setting. Let's say you're in two different environments. A festive party, and a gloomy cemetery. Which one would you more likely hear laughter in? Which one with jokes? Sad weeping? Spooky noises? Which one would likely be a mystery about the death of a person? These are influenced by the setting.

If you need further elaboration, you can search up more examples.

Read the sentence.
Sati [7]

Answer:

She met her friends in the lobby of the hotel, and they headed over to the pool for a cool, refreshing swim.

Explanation:

The correct option is the first one. This revision is the most concise, free of redundancy. This means that everything necessary is said with no unnecessary words. When we say that someone is in the lobby of a hotel, we already know that they are on the bottom floor. There is no need to include both <em>lobby </em>and <em>bottom floor </em>in the same sentence. The first sentence is the only one that contains only one of these phrases/words.

Another issue with the original sentence is the incorrect use of commas, and another reason the third option is incorrect is awkward word order.

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer." The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists thin
Alla [95]

Prions are a type of defective proteins, that can cause normal proteins to turn into defective, infectious ones: prion, word that comes from the term "proteinaceous infectious particle"; prions can cause neurodegenerative diseases. Unfortunately, even after scientists identified prions as the causal agents of the "mad cow" disease and others like the "kuru" (discovered in New Guinea, amongst a tribe that practiced cannibalism)  and the "scrapie", the authorities tried to hide the epidemic, they took too long to ban the feeding of animals with mixes that included proteins from infected animals, so if authorities had implemented more actions since at least 1993 perhaps the epidemic could have been controlled earlier, instead of almost 25 years after the disease was identified.

In this sense, the author takes us step by step in the process (over time) and illustrates how people got frustrated because of the reaction of the government: nothing was done about the disease until over ten years after its discovery.
