Answer:

c. to support his thesis.

Explanation:

When we write an essay, one of the most important elements that we have to consider is that of establishing a thesis. The thesis is the main idea of a text. It is also the main claim that the author wants to defend in his work. Once we have established a thesis, the author needs to make sure that the evidence he provides supports this thesis. Otherwise, he has no way of demonstrating that his claim is worthy of consideration.

Answer:

D) that will leave readers with something to consider.

Explanation:

Every reader of literature already knows that an interpretation of piece of literature (especially a poem) is just one of many other possible interpretations. When we support one interpretation, our purpose is not eliminate alternative interpretations. We just want the reader to consider our interpretation as well. Hence, we need an evidence to convince the readers that they should consider that particular interpretation as well.

Option A is incorrect, because Robert's main purpose is not to fill two or three pages, but to convince reader of that interpretation.

Option B is incorrect because it is very absurd.

Option C is also incorrect, because Robert's purpose is not to prove that ONLY his interpretation is correct. His purpose is to add one more interpretation to some already existing interpretations.

Match each narrative point of view to the appropriate set of pronouns.

The answer is:

<h3>First person : I, me, my, mine, we</h3>

The first person point of view allows the reader the see the story through the narrator's eyes, with his or her feelings, motives and inner thoughts.

<h3>Second person : you, your</h3>

The second person point of view is not very often used in fiction. In such cases, the narrator tells the story to the readers by addressing them with the word "you" and making them a character. In this way, readers have the feeling they are involved in the story.

<h3>Third person : he, she, it, they</h3>

In the third person point of view, the story is told by a bodiless narrator who describes the feelings and thoughts of several characters, and the events that occur to them in the story. As a consequence, readers have a wider view of the characters emotions and ideas.

Item.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because it correctly employs the comma to separate the prepositional phrase at the beginning of the sentences with the remaining part of the sentence.

The comma is necessary because without it the word time could potentially belong to the phrase if we were teenagers or to these licenses. The comma creates a needed pause in the sentence that allows the reader to oriente him/herself and keep the elements in context.
