Franklin’s curious mind and a quest for learning are emphasized as a common note on both ‘The excerpt from Young Ben Franklin’ and ‘Excerpt from Printer’s Ink’.  

<u>Explanation: </u>

‘The excerpt from Young Ben Franklin’ describes the curious nature of Franklin to read books and learn every day. He always had a strong fascination towards acquiring knowledge.

The Excerpt from Printer’s Ink also establishes the same point when he is found to be working on his brother’s print shops. He describes it as a greatest place to be, as the place relates to the publishing of articles in various areas like science, politics and entertainment. He is also found to be writing even on his deathbed. The dedication of Franklin to learn and acquire knowledge was very high.

The emphasized quality is that Ben was a perseverant, hard-working young boy and besides that he liked to read in paragraph one says: From a child I was fond of Reading. "All the little money that came into my hands was ever laid out in books". In paragraph two the author says that Ben didn't like his job with his father's soap and candle shop but it helped him learn the importance of hard work. In paragraph four it says that Mr. Franklin sent Ben to work with his older brother James who owned a print shop. Although James was often harsh with his little brother, Ben enjoyed the printing business.

Answer:

Explanation:

A personal narrative, and especially the one instructed with this prompt, is a piece of writing from the writer's perspective and own experiences. While writing can be tricky sometimes, I'm afraid only you can do this.

Here are some things to keep in mind though:

  • Write about something that interests you or you really enjoyed experiencing - this makes the words flow way easier because you're excited to share the moment you're focusing on
  • Because the instructions say to write of an event important to you, but to write it with you as a narrator and to create a setting and plot, take this exciting moment you want to share and tell it like a thrilling story (like you're telling it to your friends and you really want them on the edge of their seats with excitement). Writing this way can make the narrative come together a lot more fluidly (and way more fun to write).
  • Because it is a 500-750 word narrative, don't make it bigger than it has to be (both in writing, and how you think of it before you start). Paragraphs can be short, sentences don't have to be complex - don't overthink it.
  • 'Precise, vivid language' can seem a little overwhelming, but think about how you would describe one of your favorite things to a friend. Would you describe the size of it? The color? How it feels, tastes, smells, etc? That is vivid language and shows rather than tells - it doesn't have to be intense, just paints a picture.

I hope this helps!

A dialogue that lacks context is MOST likely to produce what kind of scene?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

sterile and devoid of setting

Explanation:

A dialogue is a form of communication between more than one person that involves messaging and feedback.

Therefore, if the dialogue is lacking in context that is relevant to the discussion, then such conversation is sterile (which means it's not producing good output) and devoid of setting (context)
