What word strategies did Agatha Christie use in her novels to steer her readers in the right direction to solve the crime?

Rasek [7]3 years ago

To steer her readers in the right direction to solve the crime, Agatha Christie repeats key words and similar words. She did this so that these words will be retained in the mind of a reader. If a person reads the word three times, it is already kept in one's own mind. She was popular for making mystery stories based on famous nursery rhymes and poetry.

Tell me a method to learn things fast that you don't tell anyone. how to be smarter lol​

Answer: We’ll first of all I always write things down especially the things I think will be on a test. Then I re-read all the information I’ve learned until the day of the test comes, but also try studying for 20 minutes then stop and focus your brain on something else for about 5-10 minutes. Then resume your studying until your done. This tactic that I use also releases stress on your eyes. Also if it’s a open book test that also helps that way you can go back in your reading and find the answer. (I always take screen shots of the information I read, then I save it in my files). I also do yoga and meditation before I start studying which helps me become more focus on what I’m doing. These tactics helps me and I hope they help you. :) have a wonderful day.

Explanation:

Knowledge, lıke every other thıng ıs not fıxated on our braın but later learned through acquısıtıon of ınformatıon or experience. The previous passage shows that, the author's knowledge of the word-<em> preponderance</em> which was used in <em>legal field was greatly misinterpreted</em>.
