AURORKA [14]

Explanation:

The sentence should be "The cake smells sweet." or "The cake is smelling sweet." The sentence is missing punctuation and capitalizing the beginning letter in the sentence. I would also prefer the first sentence as it has more consistency.

What is the effect of changing the story to present tense in the radio broadcast version?
Slav-nsk [51]

The correct answer is B. It makes the story feel like it is happening live rather than in the past

Explanation:

In literature, the tense used in a narrative affect the atmosphere of it and the perception the audience has on events. In the case presented an excerpt for The War of the Worlds has been adapted for radio and in this process, the tense has changed from past to present tense. In both cases, one character who is also the narrator describes the way he or she observed an object or creature that resembled a snake.

However, in the case of the original excerpt the use of past shows this event already occurred and the character is just reporting them, while in the case of the second excerpt the use of present means the character is experiencing the events at that moment or that the story is happening which makes the actions go faster but also makes the story more dynamic and alive. Considering this, it can be concluded the effect of changing the tense to present is that it makes the story feel like it is happening live rather than in the past.

Six million Jews<span>
Six million Jews died in the Holocaust. Jewish communities across Europe were shattered. Many of those who survived were determined to leave Europe and start new lives in Israel or the United States. Most of these Jews were killed by the Germans because Hitler believed the Jews were the cause of Germany's economic problems. He employed mass killings and created concentration camps in which they would be killed.</span>
