The correct answer is A. Nonfiction writers are more often free to move about in time and space.
B is not correct because that is usually the characteristic of nonfiction, rather than fiction. C is incorrect because usually writers of fiction can embellish the facts because they are not based on actual information. D is incorrect because sometimes writers of nonfiction can express their passionate opinions, especially in essays.
This portrayal is depicted in the image of the child who, although dead, lifts his fists, as a sign of resistance. Thanks to the oppression, the child is dead in his mother's arms, "with a bullet through his brain". But thanks to the people's undying urge for freedom, he isn't dead after all. He lives in their memories. He lives as a symbol of their desire to break free and their resistance to brutality and tyranny.
Answer:
9. A) The Starfish
10. A) The sky
11. D) Collected
12. C) Rosie found a new thing to love
13. Rose climbed on her father's shoulders so that she could be closer to the stars.
14. The starfish lived in the ocean.
Explanation:
The given passage is an adaptation of the story <em>The Strange Star</em> written by Anita N. Amin. Another title that best suits it is<em> The Starfish. </em>The starfish is the strange star Rosie discovers. The story tells about how her love for stars in the sky taught her about another creature that resembles them. This is how the starfish becomes the most important thing in the story, which is why option A is the best one.
In the second question, we need to find the phrase substituted by the pronoun <em>it</em>. This phrase is <em>the sky.</em> We can see that here: <em>Rosie loved watching the </em><u><em>night sky. It</em></u><em> shined with so many stars.</em> Only the sky mentioned in the previous sentence can shine with stars.
The words <em>gathered</em><em> </em>and <em>collected </em>have the same meaning. When you're unsure about what a word means, you can look it up in a dictionary.
In the second paragraph, we can see how Rosie found the starfish and fell in love with it. This is why we can say that the main idea here is that Rosie found a new thing to love. We can confirm this with the help of the following sentence: <em>Now, she loves both of them. </em>
