Answer:

Asked an incomplete question. Here's the full question:

What evidence supports the idea that the narrator's motivation is intrinsic?​

Read the passage from "Two Kinds."

Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents' apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for purely sentimental reasons. My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time. I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes. I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides. I rubbed the old silk against my skin, then wrapped them in tissue and decided to take them home with me.

B. "My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time."

C. "I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes."

D. "I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides."

Explanation:

How can you use the a story's setting as context clues
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Let's assume a story takes place in a cold, dark, gloomy, tall and ominous house. We can infer that something bad is going to happen, given the author's description, and the mood that the house is displayed in. If the house is stated to be bright, colorful, short-built and cheerful, the reader would not expect anything to happen that may cause suspense, fright, etc.

We started the unit by reading an excerpt from Samuel Pepys’ diary about the great fire of London. Identify one characteristic o
kkurt [141]
One characteristic of Enlightenment that is seen in this excerpt is that people should be guided by the reason and not irrational fears, however serious they may seem to be. The protagonist/author of the diary seems to be the only cool-headed person in this terrible situation. Everybody else is freaking out, running about and screaming. He notices multiple times that nobody is making any effort to actually quench the fire. He is the one who goes to warn the king and suggests that houses should be pulled down. There is one very interesting remark about Lord Mayor, who is in a panic just like everyone else: "To the King's message he cried, like a fainting woman..." Misogyny aside, this comment shows the speaker's manly, reasonable, commendable attitude. He is an active person who does something to undo the damage, and not just a passive observer or a coward who runs away in panic.

A diary entry was a fitting form during the Enlightenment period because that was the first time that the words and opinions of a more or less ordinary person were deemed important. A diary has this risk of being a subjective collection of personal impressions. But Pepys' diary pretends to be highly objective because its author sees himself as a reasonable man, important in his own right, competent enough to keep a diary and record some important things that happen around him, to other ordinary people.
