Answer: by providing a clue that uncovers the treasure

Explanation:

The rest of the excerpt is showing to us what exactly caused their reaction to the spring. They are looking forward to it because as they said ''The treasure is in the spring, between the ash tree and the silver beech.''

''XAVIER The joyous sounds of spring. The joyous sounds of the spring. The spring! KENNETH (Jumping up) Where rocks and pebbles sing. The water going over the rocks and pebbles. And you can't get to it in the wintertime because the spring is frozen then. XAVIER (From behind the trees) The treasure is in the spring, between the ash tree and the silver beech.''

We can see that they are happy because of the sound of the spring and now they will be able to find the treasure since in the wintertime everything is under the snow.

Which statement is an example of finding common ground when addressing a counterclaim?
dlinn [17]

Answer: B. While both sides agree that processed foods are more convenient, the damage they do to a person's health should not be ignored.

"Finding common ground" means trying to find the areas in which both sides of a debate agree on. In this example, both sides on the debate on processed foods agree that this type of foods are more convenient. Finding common ground when addressing a counterclaim can ensure that both sides listen to the statement, instead of one side feeling alienated or ignored.

Why do you think American writers of subsequent literary periods often choose to break from traditions and seek more freedom in
Stells [14]
I believe that writers are definitely justified in challenging the artistic status quo, because that's what true artists do.  But to answer the question of why they do it, there are more answers.  Think of Emily Dickinson, for example.  She always strongly stood by her own freedoms and decisions to go against the current, and she's one of the most famous of American writers because of it.  Aside from the fact she wanted to, going against the norm for writers often gives them more attention than if they wrote what was "expected" at the time.  When studying famous American writers, we are often told to study things that they did differently than most, some, mostly the less notable today, only had minor differences, like they made their stories from different tenses, etc.  But the most notorious used themes that may have been taboo and writing styles even more diverse.  There is always the counter culture and most writers that we study belonged to it, sick of the large amount of similar, traditional stories that lacked element, or simply wanted to stand out.
Another reason could be that writers wanted to spread the written word to all different kinds of things that have yet to be written about, different characters that haven't yet been discovered.  And there are the related reasons like how writers didn't even know they were writing for the public, only time tells, like with Ann Frank.  She wasn't afraid to put opinions down on paper because it was her own personal journal but it had become a famous piece of literature because of the opinions.
 I think writers break from tradition because the traditions are often not realistic and these artists are the only ones who will tell the truth, and that is why they do it, and that is why they are so important.
