<u>Which excerpt from a student essay maintains the most objective tone?</u>
<em>C. The careful way Elisa tends her garden reveals that she takes great pride in her abilities as a gardener.</em>
An <u>objective tone </u>means the author of the essay is not sharing her/his personal opinion, bias or judgment about a subject, but presenting the information impartially.
The remaining options have a <u>subjective tone</u>, through the use of the pronouns "me" or "I", which indicate the student is presenting a personal opinion about Eliza.
Answer:
Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him.
Explanation:
Unlike the second to last sentence (right before the above written), this sentence gives the moon traits that a person would have. The second to last sentence (the one with "They walk") only <em>tells</em> the personification rather than <em>shows</em>.
It applies to everyone thats in the state so it depends on which state you are in. Each state is different with their pays
Through the sacrifices Della and jim make for one another, they prove love is more important than material possessions. as the narrator says "of all who receive gifts, such as they are the wisest." When they make such sacrifices, they do it to make the spouse happy. They sell their most prized posession for each other. For jim, it is a family heirloom, his grandfather's watch, and for Della, its her long, beautiful hair.
"She got out her curling irons and lighted the gas and went to work repairing the ravages made by generosity added to love. Which is always a tremendous task, dear friends—a mammoth task."
“Jim, darling,” she cried, “don’t look at me that way. I had my hair cut off and sold because I couldn’t have lived through Christmas without giving you a present. . . . Say ‘Merry Christmas!’ Jim, and let’s be happy. You don’t know what a nice—what a beautiful, nice gift I’ve got for you.”
"Many a happy hour she had spent planning for something nice for him."
"Maybe the hairs of my head were numbered,” she went on with sudden serious sweetness, “but nobody could ever count my love for you. Shall I put the chops on, Jim?"
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's look at the four answer options.
1. George does not value education.
2. George does not want to learn about agriculture.
3. George wants to stay and develop a relationship with Emily.
4. George wants to receive letters from Emily while he is at school.
Option #1 is incorrect because he says that love is just as important or more important than college, and since love is a huge theme in literature, it leads me to believe that he does still value education as well.
Option #2 is incorrect as well because he does not talk about why he doesn't like agriculture at all, and he only mentions it when talking about the school.
Option #4 is incorrect because he says nothing about letters and specifically says he isn't going to school so he wouldn't be receiving letters at school
This leaves us with option #3. This makes sense because he is saying that love and relationships are more important to him than school, so he will stay and not go to the school.
The answer is George wants to stay and develop a relationship with Emily.
Have a wonderful day! :D
