Answer: REALISTIC FICTION

Realistic elements

Gregor’s family members are realistic because they’re ordinary, unremarkable people with understandable shortcomings. Before Gregor’s transformation, his life was unremarkable too—the hectic life of a sales agent who supports his family.

The settings, characters, and events of the story resemble those of everyday reality.

Allegorical elements

Gregor’s transformation into an insect symbolizes the larger themes of the story, such as isolation and persecution.

After the transformation, Gregor’s actions and thoughts carry greater symbolic significance than they would have if he had continued to be human.

Elements of surrealism

Gregor’s transformation is highly implausible.

The story begins with Gregor awakening from a “troubled dream,” and we’re unsure whether the story is a part of some unusual reality or just the continuation of his dream.

Hatshy [7]
I believe the correct answer is D. It builds a sense of anticipation and mystery.
This is the moment when Lady of Shalott is about to make her fatal transgression and activate the curse. She is never supposed to look directly outside the window. Yet, here she is very intrigued by what she thinks is there - the young and handsome knight Lancelot.

Highlight clues that signal the reader should change tone.
Talja [164]

The clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. For example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.

The tone of the first line of dialogue until "Gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. The narrator is trying to help the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.

The clue that helps the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. It gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.

The best tone for reading the word "bang" is an exciting tone, a surprise one, even a loud one.

The words that should be read with a formal tone are the ones that give factual information. The sentence: Mister Lincoln couldn't think of anything to say at the Gettysburg" gives information about an event and it needs to be read formally, also, when the narrator wants to transmit calmness, a formal and slow tone is needed, because people also transmit messages with the vibrations of our voices and tones.

The man ignored us and pressed on steadily.
Wittaler [7]

I'm not going to write the paragraph for you, but I can try to help.

I would include how fearful the speaker is and how wary the people transporting the woman are. You could also add how they dumped the woman into the street, and how nobody agrees on how to move the woman.

Basically, the emotions of the characters are what draw readers into the historical facts. I hope that helps you!
