The little dog had a shiny black coat and thick fur. It always was happy and wagging its tail. It would go run around outside and come back in panting happily. The dog had a greasy black coat with tangled, unorganized fur. Its tail wagged too hard and always knocked things over. It never seemed to stop panting and drooling all over the house. The diction of these two paragraphs gave different moods, even though they were written about the same dog. The first paragraph uses a positive diction and the second paragraph uses a more negative one. It is important to use different kinds of diction to convey the mood of a text.

wolverine [178]

The correct answer is "A photograph of an alien spaceship landing on Earth."

Further Explanation:

A picture of an alien spaceship that has landed on Earth is more convincing to people than other evidence that may be shown. A hoax is when a person or persons will try to trick others into believing something that is not true.

A person may believe that the picture is true and then spread the news to more people who also may believe the picture. This will then spread the hoax all over. There have been many hoaxes throughout time that have made people believe them to be true.

Read "Swing Song" by A. A. Milne. Here I go up in my swing Ever so high. I am the King of the fields, and the King Of the town.

marissa [1.9K]

Answer: The repeated words explain the child's imaginary powers.

Explanation:

I think you were asking for an answer to multiple choice, yes? Repitition often is used to add power or importance to a statement being made. By repeating the certain words of "King" and "Swing" you can get a sense of power that is meant to be created. The author is using it to stress the child-like imagination in the excerpt. Hopefully this answered your question and if not I'm happy to try again.

In the story, “The Cask of Amontillado,” Poe's use of an unreliable narrator to tell the story heightens the uncertainty and sense of horror felt by the reader.

<h3>Who is “The Cask of Amontillado,” about?</h3>

The short story “The Cask of Amontillado” was by Edgar Allen Poe. This depicts the narrative of a man's vengeance on a buddy that he believes has been mocking him for far too long.

Montresor is the story's narrator, but he lacks credibility because he only tells the story from his own perspective.

The fallible narration through the figure of Montresor casts doubt on the story and leaving readers undecided about their sensitivities about it.

Poe's choice of an unreliable narrator to recount the story heightens the reader's sense of doubt and terror.

Therefore, option B is correct.
