Answer:

D. It shifts from matter-of-fact to regretful.

Explanation:

In the story "A Decade" the speaker begins by recounting the incidents of his life in a matter-of-fact way. He tells us of his childhood in China, and of how the Communist policies that were implemented in the country impacted his life and that of his neighbours. He continues telling us about his teacher, and the role that he played in sending her to a reeducation camp. He has now come back to look for her and apologize. However, the woman he finds has been completely destroyed by her experiences, and is clearly bitter and unhappy. The tone of the text towards the end of the story is one of deep regret.

What characteristic of Harry's makes us think that he might be a trustworthy narrator?
scoray [572]

Answer:

He tells us when he has minor flaws such as being afraid.

Explanation:

One of the most common issues making a narrator untrustworthy is his/her bias toward oneself and toward other characters of the story whom he/she likes or does not like.

Most of the time bias is in favor of oneself, in rare cases it may be against oneself - blaming oneself excessively.

Telling one's own minor and/or major flaws is only one of many characteristics to make a narrator trustworthy.

All other options are either insignificant for adjudging him as a trustworthy narrator, or opposite of what makes him trustworthy and neutral.

Second and third options are insignificant (do not contribute in making him neutral narrator)

Fourth option is incorrect because focusing on oneself makes a narrator biased and hence untrustworthy.
