Answer:
I believe the choice Welles makes that causes the radio broadcast to feel like it is happening live is:
D. He changes the verbs to present tense.
Explanation:
In 1938, future filmmaker Orson Welles broadcast a special Halloween episode on radio featuring an adaptation of the novel War of the Worlds, by H. G. Wells. The novel narrates a fictional invasion on Earth by Martians.
<u>Welles made it seem as if the bits of the novel he was reading were actually news bulletins, interrupting the normal broadcast of music now and then with new details concerning an invasion. To make it sound more realistic, as if the events are happening live, he narrates them using the present tense. The excerpt below belongs to a transcription of the broadcast. Pay attention to the verbs:</u>
<em> Ladies and gentlemen, we</em><em> interrupt</em><em> our program of dance music to bring you a special bulletin from the Intercontinental Radio News. At twenty minutes before eight, central time, Professor Farrell of the Mount Jennings Observatory, Chicago, Illinois, </em><em>reports
</em><em> observing several explosions of incandescent gas, occurring at regular intervals on the planet Mars. The spectroscope</em><em> indicates</em><em> the gas to be hydrogen and moving towards the earth with enormous velocity. Professor Pierson of the Observatory at Princeton confirms Farrell's observation, and </em><em>describes</em><em> the phenomenon as "like a jet of blue flame shot from a gun".</em>
<u>By using the present tense, the narrator conveys a sense of immediacy, as if the events are taking place in real time.</u>
Line 9 means dream but not just dream, instead be realistic and be goal oriented function in both good situations and bad and realize that you will have both throughout your life.Line 10 means you're patient and you can tolerate things even lies that are being told to you
Line 11 and 12 means victory and an event that causes great damage.
Line 13 and 14 means tolerate the fact that people have twisted your words or wrecked your projects, rebuild your projects and rebuild your life again when necessary
Line 15 and 16 mean an old-fashioned word for dishonest men,build them up rebuild the broken parts of your life.
Line 17,18,19,and 20 mean risk everything you have, lose it and then start all over again without complaints
Line 21 and 22 mean not to give up when you feel weakened physically and mentally hang in there.
A. I THINK BUT IM NOT COMPLETLY SURE
Memoir is a personal legacy written so we can call it a historical source but not document. It is not an evidence, a report or not even a record. It is more like an autobiography or a biography from memorial times. It is a legacy written by a person for a person.
