Why is it a mistake to overuse exclamation points in your writing?

English
2 answers:
Lemur [1.5K]3 years ago
8 0
The answer is A., it makes it feel as if you're shouting at the reading. Exclamation marks are used to show lots of emotion, as sometimes it is also used for shouting.

B., C., and D. all are completely not related.
Your opinion can be expressed with exclamation marks, it won't confuse anyone. Like I said, exclamation marks are used to show lots of fire and emotion. It wouldn't confuse anyone.

Exclamation marks do not confuse the main point. The reasoning for why it isn't C is similar to the reasoning for B. Exclamation marks do not change the main point.

C. is pretty much the opposite. Exclamation marks are used for emotions, not to show no emotion.

How does the author's use of direct and indirect characterization help the reader to visualize the character of Merridew?
zhenek [66]
1.) DIRECT CHARACTERIZATION - the writer makes direct statements about a character's personality and tells what the character is like. 

<span>a. Read how Golding describes Piggy in the beginning of the novel. He reveal's to us readers that Piggy is a shy boy who dons glasses and is fat (thus his nickname). </span>

<span>2.) INDIRECT CHARACTERIZATION - the writer reveals information about a character and his personality through that character's thoughts, words, and actions, along with how other characters respond to that character, including what they think and say about him. </span>

<span>a. A good example would be Jack. Golding described him as the eldest boy of the choir and many of the younger choir boys looked up to him and depended on him a great deal after the crash. What Golding didn't tell us was that Jack took his dictatorship seriously and he went too far with his role when he blindly killed Simon and he developed a thirst for blood.

Please help giving 20 points
Ilya [14]

Answer: A

Explanation: While I'm not bilingual, and can't verify if that statement is correct, I do know it's the only "reason" on the list. B is a subjective experience and doesn't really prove anything, C is just different examples of languages and isn't a reason at all, and D is an example of something that could be done to support the claim, but not a reason why the claim is correct. A is the only one that really argues <em>why </em>all students should be required to learn a second language.
