The first time most people fall for E.B. White – certainly the first time I did – they are 6 or 7 or 8. In 1952, “Charlotte’s Web” made him the New Yorker writer with the largest grade-school fan base.
I fell in love with “Charlotte’s Web” because, when White talked about grown-up mysteries like love and death, he was as honest as a punch to the jaw. Many years later, I fell in love with “Death of a Pig” because, covering the same subjects for adults, White was as straightforward as a pie to the face.
Here are the facts of the case: A gentleman farmer (and New Yorker staff writer) ventures out to his pig enclosure one September afternoon and discovers that the hog he has nurtured through spring and summer has lost its appetite, gone listless. An obstruction of the bowel is suspected. The farmer, his dachshund and a veterinarian preside over the pig’s decline, until it dies alone a few days later, sometime between supper and midnight. The pig receives a graveside autopsy and is buried under a wild apple tree. The farmer accepts his neighbor’s condolences (“the premature expiration of a pig is, I soon discovered, a departure which the community marks solemnly on its calendar, a sorrow in which it feels fully involved”) before taking up his pen and telling the story “in penitence and in grief, as a man who failed to raise his pig.”
Word choice is used to get a point across. So if you look a choice A, the author definitely does not feel that the manufacturers are striving to provide COMPLETE information (or there wouldn't be the questions). I would say the same thing for D, making that an incorrect answer. Looking at B and C, the author does use exaggeration in personification, but he doesn't mention sales. He does however set a frustrated tone and touches on confusion of the customers, so I feel that C is the best answer here.
1. If my memory serves me well, Lincoln's focus in the Gettysburg Address was to <span>describe the importance of the union and freedom. (D) Lincoln's main purpose was to describe what impact had the war on the country. He d</span>enounced the injustices of the nations law.<span>
2. I am definitely sure that the </span>purpose of Martin Luther King, Jr. writing "Letter from Birmingham Jail" was to <span>defend his actions, react to a statement, share his opinions regarding segregation. Letter from Birmingham Jail has many things in common with Lincoln's Gettysburg address.</span>
