The rhetorical device used by Twain in this excerpt is the anecdote (C.).

<u>An anecdote is defined as an entertaining narrative, usually relating biographical events</u>.

This definition fits to the text because the story is an account of events which happened to the character in the past ("One winter's night, two years ago, I...")  and the narrative is comical enough to be considered for entertainement value ("I was carrying off a box of guns ... and he had got my corpse!").

When summarizing the (blank) of a plot, one should notice the key ideas about how the conflict builds. BeginningMiddleEndingReso
goblinko [34]
In a more complex plot diagram, you will often see these categories going up and down the stairs to the climax in order:

Exposition/Beginning, Rising Action, Climax/Middle, Falling Action, and then the Resolution/End.

This helps to remember because the rising action (building of the conflict) would be categorized and placed before the climax. The climax should also be known as when the conflict is finally brought to the surface. A character should spend their entire falling action trying to find a way to resolve it. Because of this, your answer is going to be 'in the beginning.' This is when you are going to see the conflict start to build as it struggles to reach the middle or the climax. Remember that the climax is most likely where you are going to hit the breaking point and major importance of the conflict. You are rising (action) and building up towards it.

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Kyle's average hourly earnings for the job is $17.18

Explanation:

Given:

Cost for mowing lawn = $22.00

cost for weed eating  = $5.00

cost for edging = $5.00

cost for leaf blowing  = $5.00

cost for plating one flower bed = $10.00

To find:

Average hourly earnings for the job = ?

Solution:

Lets first find the total amount earned

Total amount earned  =  Cost for mowing lawn + cost for weed eating +cost for edging +cost for leaf blowing + 2(cost for plating one flower bed)

Total amount earned  = 22.00+ 5.00 +5.00 +5.00 +2(10.00)

Total amount earned  = 22.00+ 5.00 +5.00 +5.00 +20.00

Total amount earned  = 22.00+ 5.00 +5.00 +5.00 +20.00

Total amount earned  =  57.00

Kyle's average hourly earnings for the job = \frac{ \text{ Total amount earned}}{\text{time taken to complete the work}}

=>\frac{57.00}{3.2}

=> 17.18
