Alicia had to grin as her brother's laugh grew louder. "I'll take a squirt in the face any day over a bite," she said bending to

retrieve the dropped bivalve. It was going to be a good day. At the beginning of the story, Alicia is convinced that scallops will hurt her. Why then does she claim at the end of the story that she was going to have "a good day"?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

C, Maintain a formal style.

Explanation:

The first sentence makes the reader believe they will be reading about someone's opinion because it is in the 1st-person and it directly states that this is the narrator's thoughts, in a casual way. The text immediately shifts into a 3rd-person writing style, using evidence and commentary on such evidence. The casual tone degrades the value of the following text because the reader views the following text as a personal belief rather than advice or information. A formal style will elevate this text to the next level, separate the narrator from the topic, and allow the text to convey its meaning through information and analysis, rather than someone's opinion.
