An introduction of the Gleason family
The best description of Kenneth, based on this excerpt is, He is trying to convince Xavier to sell the farm.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
The passage is a conversation between Xavier and Kenneth where Xavier is unhappy with his grandmother’s idea of him being a farmer. So he expresses his concern with Kenneth.
From the excerpt we can see that it was Xavier who was speaking most of the time, while Kenneth was simply relaxed and he didn’t interact much.
It was only at the end of the conversation when Kenneth gives an idea to Xavier that apart from farming, one thing which he can do is to sell it.
Kenneth in a way is trying to assure Xavier that he don’t need to farm if he don’t feel like, just sell the farm and his problem will be solved.
Answer:
This is really good!!
Explanation:
I really enjoyed your writing and I like how you have set this story up!! The story is extremely intriguing and I almost didn't want to stop reading. I love your descriptive language and it makes the story feel alive. The scenarios feel real and its easy to put yourself in the place of Winter (who is an interesting character) and feel sorry for her and her situation. The one thing I think that could help this even more is maybe some even more descriptive words when describing her running away from Cain (she heard every leaf crunch under her feet and cringed at the thought of him hearing her, she felt the cold breeze and stiff air more than ever alone in that tree and she sat in the short amount of safety that was given to her in that moment, she heard Cains manic laugh echo through the forest, ect.). I feel as though this could make that scene even more better than it already is!! :)
I love this idea and your creativity! Keep writing, this will be amazing!!
Answer:
B. The radio broadcast has a more surprised tone.
Explanation:
<em>The War of the Worlds</em> is a book by H. G. Wells, which was also adapted as a radio broadcast by Orson Welles. In its book form, the story is told after the events (a Martian invasion) have taken place. They are also told in a more matter-of-fact tone. On the other hand, in the radio broadcast, the events are told in a way that makes it seem as if they were happening in the moment. The speaker sounds more scared, and the overall tone is more surprised.
Imagery refers to the mental images and figures that writers create in the mind of their readers. By using specific vocabulary and literary techniques, writers can create certain images in readers' minds. Sensory imagery, therefore, refers to the use of specific words that connect the readers' senses (touch, smell, sight, hearing and taste) with the ideas developed in the writers' work in order to create a mood, idea or theme in their minds.
In this poem "To Cecilia" (written by Ben Jonson in 1616) we can appreciate some examples of these sensory imagery:
In this poem, the writer is contemplating and admiring the woman's beauty and, in the first paragraph, we can observe that the use of the word "eyes" in the first line make us think that the writer is looking at her, contemplating her beauty. In this case, he connects the readers' sight with such idea.
As another example of sensory imagery, in "Or leave a kiss but in the cup And I'll not look for wine", the writer is trying to connect his/her feelings to kiss the woman with the taste of wine. The writer is trying to connect his/her desire to taste her kiss and he/she successes in connecting that idea with one of the readers' sense: taste.
The last example that can be identified in the poem is at the end. The writers talks about the rosy wreath that he/she has sent to his/her loved one and how she has sent it back to the writer. But the writer talks about its smell. By doing so, the writer tries to connect that smell of the rosy wreath with the readers' own sense, that is, the sense of smell.
