Read the following excerpt from the article "Vision, Voice and the Power of Creation: An Author Speaks Out," by T. A. Barron, an

d answer the question that follows:
Another way to tap the power of imagination is through place. My own background as a writer is rooted in nature, having grown up reading Henry David Thoreau, Rachel Carson, and John Muir long before I ever dipped into Madeleine L'Engle, Lloyd Alexander, Ursula Le Guin, E. B. White, or J.R.R. Tolkien. My early writings were really nature journals; at nine, I wrote a complete biography—of a tree. (It was a once-majestic chestnut tree not far from my home.) So it should come as no surprise that I view place as much more than just a setting for a story. It is, in truth, another form of character, no less alive and complex, mysterious and contradictory, than the richest character in human form.

The author writes that he "wrote a complete biography—of a tree." What message is implied about the tree with this statement? (10 points)

1)The author couldn't think of any other subject for a biography.

2)The author didn't think a partial biography was enough.

3)The author didn't want to speak for the tree.

4)The author believed the tree had a life story, like a person.

The correct answer is 4) The author believed the tree had a life story, like a person.
Usually, biographies are written for and about people - a biography is a text about someone's life, their accomplishments, and the most important things that happened throughout their lives. However, Barron thought of this tree as an actual living person who deserved to have its story told, which is why he wrote a biography about its life.

Using figurative speech, describe a beautiful person's features?

Use Concrete Examples The best place to start with your character description is with concrete examples. To say that a character has "brown hair" doesn't create nearly the image as saying that a character has long dreadlocks. Think about what kind of clothes the character wears, whether a character has freckles or moles, whether her teeth are straight or crooked or what kind of scars he has. 
Make Examples Do More Avoid overloading your reader with a list of details about each character's appearance. 
To create a vivid image of your character without spending a lot of time on minutia, choose details that have a ripple effect on the description.

The mock-heroic nature of this tale is shown in the section introducing the fox. Which lines demonstrate a manner of speaking ap
Oxana [17]

The lines which demonstrate a manner of speaking appropriate are lines 408 to 412.

Answer: Option 4.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The context has been taken from "The Nun's Priest's Tale". It is a narrative poem which was composed in the early time period of 1390s. This poem is a mock epic and beast fable. This poem is based on an incident that took place in the Reynard cycle. The poet of this poem is Geoffrey Chaucer who was a poet of the Middle English.

The lines in the poem which demonstrate a manner of speaking more appropriate to a far more serious and tragic content are the lines from 408 to 412 out of the 626 lines in the poem.
