Full Question:

 

Read the excerpt from the building of manhattan.

<em>It was a monumental task: to design the world's tallest building, create as much usable rental space as possible, plan so it could be built within 18 months, and still have a handsome building. in the end, architect william lamb worked on fifteen designs before his plan "k" was finally chosen</em>.

Which phrase can be changed when paraphrasing this text?

A) within 18 months

B) plan ‘K’

C) handsome building

D) william lamb

Answer:

The correct answer is C) handsome building

Explanation:

To paraphrase means to put forward the definition of (something written or spoken) using alternate meanings to give it greater clarity.

In the sentence above, the phrase "handsome building" is murky.

The building (in this context) can only be "<em>handsome</em>" if after it is properly constructed according to sound and generally accepted engineering requirements without losing the original design and altering the projected cost, it still meets the contractors' expectations as the <em>Worlds Tallest Building. </em>

Afterall, he who pays the piper, calls the tune.

Note that the writer communicates challenges with constraints that threatened to force the alteration of the purpose of the building which is to have the Worlds Tallest Building.

There were the constraints of Time and Purpose.

So, a rephrased sentence would look like this:

<em>It was a monumental task: to design the world's tallest building, create as much usable rental space as possible, plan so it could be built within 18 months, and still meet the objective of the Project Owner of becoming the Worlds Tallest Building. In the end, architect William Lamb worked on fifteen designs before his plan "K" was finally chosen.  </em>

Read the excerpt from Poe’s "The Fall of the House of Usher."
Fudgin [204]

The excerpt provides information about the narration because of the use of the pronoun 'I'.

The First person narrator tells a story from the first person point of view, by using the pronoun 'I'. This narrator is a character involved in the action and participates in the events of the story in some way. It can be a main character in the story or even an observer. Therefore, the information a reader gets from the story in a First person narration is limited to the things the narrator experiences, knows, thinks, or chooses to tell the reader.

Moreover, in the excerpt when it says:

-<em>but with a shudder even more thrilling than before- </em>

The narrator is expressing his own feelings, describing what he or she felt and how it happened. The narrator could not do the same with other characters, because he or she could not feel what another person felt.
