"Café Olympia serves coffee from all over the world" (B) states a fact rather than an opinion.

When writing essays for school, or researching information to support your writing, it is important to be able to stay factual and avoid stating opinions (unless you are specifically asked to do it, or unless you explicitly mention that you are quoting a biased work).

These characteristics should help you identify an <u>opinion</u>:

  • appreciation verbs like <em>enjoy</em>, <em>hate</em>, <em>wish</em>, <em>believe, </em>etc.
  • adjectives expressing value judgement like <em>best</em>, <em>good</em>, <em>bad</em>, <em>favorite</em>, <em>disappointing</em>, <em>fascinating</em>, <em>boring</em>, etc.
  • clear involvement of the narrator, for example when the subject is <em>I</em> or <em>we</em>.

Conversely, a <u>factual</u> statement usually has:

  • a distanced narrator, who does not get involved
  • information which can be checked, like in answer B: "coffee from all over the world."

ASAP In "Exhalation," what is the "inscription hypothesis"?
Tems11 [23]

In "Exhalation", “the belief that memory is recorded as writing in the brain” is the "inscription hypothesis"

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

The author, Ted Chiang, feels suspicious about the slow functioning of the human’s brain and decides to find out why. He dissects the brain and finds out that the brains are not malfunctioning but are actually working faster. He wondered and questioned about the fineness of brain.

For decades, the theory of memory dominated that all human experiences are engraved on the golden leaf; it was these blades that were torn apart by the force of the explosion and were the cause of small flakes found after the disaster.

Anatomists collect pieces of golden leaf - so thin that light falls out of the greenery - and have been trying for years to reconstruct the original leaves in the hope of deciphering characters recording the last experiences of the deceased.

He later comes up with a hypothesis called the inscription hypothesis, stating that human memory is recorded as writing in the brain. Exhalation by Ted Chiang is a short story which is filled with science, thus making it a science based short story.
