C)to put more emphasis on the film itself, rather than on the movie studio

Many editors would revise the new version to eliminate the passive voice. However, in this case passive voice makes this sentence better. The purpose of the sentences are to talk about the movie "Return of the Robots". By revising the second sentence to passive voice, the focus remains on the movie rather than on the movie studio.

Answer:

The correct answers are C and D.

Explanation:

The climax in a literary work is the most intense moment in the development of an action, a decisive, turning point in relationships, clashes between literary heroes or between a hero and circumstances. The climax reveals the acuteness of the conflict described in the plot of the work. The climax is best found in works of epic and dramatic genres.

In a novel, the climax is usually moved closer to the finale, and is a contrasting situation in relation to an unexpected denouement; in a novel or drama, the denouement after the climax occurs gradually.

In two to three sentences, explain how the story supports the theme "Those who sacrifice for each other are the wisest.”
Zarrin [17]

Answer and Explanation:

This question is about the short story "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. The name of the story is an allusion to the wise Magi who brought gifts to Jesus Christ once he was born.

<u>In the story, Della and her husband Jim end up sacrificing their most valuable possessions to give each a Christmas gift.</u> They are a poor couple, but they love each other very much and cannot bear the idea of not having something nice to give. Della sells her beautiful long hair to buy a gold chain for Jim's watch. Jim sells his watch to buy expensive combs to adorn Della's hair. Therefore, one cannot wear what the other has bought them.

<u>They may not look wise after making such decisions. However, according to the narrator, they are as wise, perhaps even more, than the Magi. Unlike the Magi, Della and Jim made sacrifices because of their love. Being able to sacrifice is a great demonstration of wisdom, and quite a rare one. Jim and Della understand what true love is.</u>
