Answer: The sentences that use definition 3 of the word "baste" are "The maids were ordered to baste the quilt to keep the layers in place" and "Before stitching the gown, Marie learned to baste the seams of a dress for a fitting".

Explanation: In sentences 2 and 4 ("The maids were ordered to baste the quilt to keep the layers in place" and "Before stitching the gown, Marie learned to baste the seams of a dress for a fitting")<u> the word "baste" means to sew with long stitches in order to hold something together</u>. In the case of sentence 2, what is meant to hold together is a quilt, while in sentence 4, what are held in place are the seams of a dress. In that way, <u>both sentences use definition 3 of the word "baste".</u> In contrast, sentence 1 uses definition 2, and sentences 3 and 5 use definition 1.

Savatey [412]
American writers often break from literary tradition because, the audience always wants something new, surprising, unusual, etc. Like anything else on this world Authors change. I believe that writers are justified in challenging the status quo because literacy is an art, and like any kind of art it evolves and changes creating new things. Any attempt to stop change is simply wrong and  insult against creativity.
