Answer:

A good summary of an essay should probably include the main idea of each paragraph, and the main evidence supporting that idea, unless it is not relevant to the article or essay as a whole. A summary does not need a conclusion, but if the original ends with a message to the reader this should not be left out.

<span>A.To paint a picture of an aggressive being </span>
<span>B.To make readers sympathetic to the ocean wave </span>
<span>C.To show how friendly the ocean can be </span>

<span><span>



</span><span>I'd say A. I took this same quiz and got the same question. In the question, it says "And made as he would eat me up". Since you narrowed the choices down to A or C, I'll explain that C is incorrect because an friendly being would not seek to eat up another person/thing. Describing a wave and speaking of eating one up would lead one to believe that it is a violent, malevolent wave. One that would gladly crush another.</span></span>
