The purpose is to inform.

It is not even clear what the author would be selling. Also, they're not trying to entertain or persuade; there is no indication of this; so the best answer is "to inform".

Read paragraphs 8–11 of the text. Then answer the multiple-choice questions that follow.
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The commentary which best responds to this text evidence is:

A) This text evidence shows that storytelling in movies is tighter and smaller in scope than novels.

Explanation:

Let's highlight the part that helps us find the answer:

<em>Movies have always seemed to me a much tighter form of storytelling than novels, requiring greater compression, and in that sense </em><em>falling somewhere between the short story and the novel in scale</em><em>.”</em>

<u>This passage makes it very clear that movies are greater in scale than short stories, but smaller than novels. </u>With this information in mind, we can easily work with elimination to find our option.

<u>Option A says precisely that. It states that storytelling in movies is smaller in scope than novels, which is correct. We have already found the answer, but let's take a look at the other options.</u>

Option B says movies are more like a short story than a novel, which is not what the evidence says. Movies fall between the two genres; it is not more similar to one than the other. Option C says storytelling is similar in both movies and television, but that is completely unrelated to the evidence we are supposed to analyze. Finally, option D states movies are larger in scale than novels, which is the opposite of what the evidence supports.

Explain how the authors perspective on her mormon faith changes.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Her perspective changed when she realized that too many lives have been lost while she quietly observes, in accordance to her Mormon belief of not questioning things and keeping quiet about it.

Explanation:

In her account of her family's Mormon beliefs and fights against the hereditary cancer that seemed to take a toll on them, Terry Tempest Williams wrote about how she had quietly observed the pain and struggle according to her Mormon belief. She wrote <em>The Clan of One-Breasted Women</em>  to reveal how this blind faith has led to the quiet observance of the deaths and sufferings of the women in her life.

She admits that though her family/ community's belief made everything seem fine. She remembers being taught that <em>"authority is respected, obedience is revered, and independent  thinking is not."</em> She was also warned as a small girl not to <em>"make waves"</em> or <em>"rock the boat"</em>, which she had been doing until the cancer cases became more than she can simply let go. She came to realize how much damage has been done while she plays the silent spectator. She decides that her beliefs may not be the main cause of the deaths of the many beautiful people in her life. But being silent even after all the loss in her life is not something that she can endure anymore. This realization brought a change in her perspective on her Mormon faith.
