Which sentence best illustrates the exposition in "​ R.M.S. Titanic"?

English
1 answer:
Cloud [144]4 years ago
3 0

Answer: D) "Her bulk dwarfed the ships near her as longshoremen singled up her mooring lines and cast off the turns of heavy rope from the dock bollards."

Explanation:

The exposition of a story refers to the first part of it where the story is introduced along with the characters and other details that serve to set up things like the mood, time and setting of the story.

In the case of the RMS Titanic, this would be the part that speaks about the setting off of the ship as well as a description of the Titanic itself. This is what is provided in option D by describing the size of the Titanic as well as her departure.

Match each sentence with the function of the noun clause in bold.
suter [353]

1. What I saw in the closet left me speechless. = subject


Here, the noun clause is <em>What I saw in the closet. </em>This clause is used as the subject of the sentence. So, you can replace the entire clause with one simple word - <em>he. </em>For example: <em>He left me speechless. </em>This way you can easily determine that the first word (or rather the entire clause in the example above) is the subject.


2. When I was six, I learned how to swim. = direct object


The noun clause here is <em>How to swim. </em>Even though this may look like an adverbial clause, it is not because it has the function of a direct object (which only noun clauses can). You can easily determine that this is a direct object by asking the question - <em>what? </em>For example: <em>What did I learn when I was six? </em>And the answer is: <em>How to swim. </em>This way you know it is an object.


3. I was caught between what my conscience was telling me and what I wanted to do. = object of a preposition


Here, the noun clauses are <em>What my conscience was telling me and what I wanted to do. </em>They are objects, but not regular objects (like in sentence 2 above). Given that they are located after the preposition <em>between, </em>they are called object of a preposition.


4. The scary movie I watched is what kept me awake that night. = predicative nominative


Predicative nominative is a word, phrase, or an entire clause following a linking verb (such as to be, to seem, etc.). In the example above, the linking verb is <em>IS, </em>and the clause following it <em>What kept me awake that night </em>is the predicative nominative.

Why it is better to not use rhetorical questions in a research paper.
pickupchik [31]
Rhetorical questions add a level of cheesiness to the paper and unless you are a very good writer, and I mean college professor level, then you will most likely fail at any attempt. Also writing research papers your suppose to be telling the reader what they don't know instead of asking them what is already do know.
