Answer:

It helps a reader better understand a text by relating the text to real-life experiences.

Explanation:

When we're reading a text, we use our prior knowledge and experiences to understand it better and with more ease. There are different kinds of connections we can establish with a text:

Text-to-self - personal connections that a reader makes between a text and their own experiences.
Text-to-text - connections that a reader makes between the text they are reading now and previously read texts.
Text-to-world - connections that the reader makes between the text and more universal, non-personal experiences (e.g. what we can see on TV).

What's described in your question is are text-to-self connections. Thus, the correct option is the second one.

"Early" and "reluctantly" are adverbs. "Early" helps the verb "retired" by telling when. "Reluctantly" describes how the baby boomers feel about "looking" for another job. Hope this helped. :D

WILL GIVE BRAINLY

NemiM [27]

Psychology Major here! :) Hope this helps:

1) Up to date, there is still no definite answer when it comes the capacity of information a brain can withhold - it is truly unlimited.

2) The size of a brain varies between species and its capacity to retain information varies as well.

3) Humans have the most complex psychological process to understand, however, there are many other species who have incredible cognitive intelligence. (Such as dolphins, for example.)

4) When damage is done to a certain side of the brain and there is a need to remove the damaged area, there is a possibility that the undamaged parts of the brain can take over the same functions as the removed area. (Therefore, for example, the remaining part of your brain can still nearly function to a maximum capacity depending of the severity of damage... as well as area).

5) The brain named itself "brain".
(The brain controls you, but you control the brain.)

How does Ponyboy’s point of view influence how events in this chapter are described? What can you determine about Ponyboy’s char

elena55 [62]

The point of view presented by Ponyboy allows the reader to understand the events in a more personal and intimate way, as Ponyboy shows how he perceives things and how he feels about them.

Although you haven't shown it, we can see that this question is from the book "The Outsiders." Unfortunately, you didn't show the chapter to which this question refers, which makes it difficult for me to answer it specifically, but I will try to help you in the best possible way.

As we read these books, we can see that:

The narrator of the book is Ponyboy, who is also the protagonist of the story.
Ponyboy lives with his older brothers.
They live with little economic resources and all are involved with street gangs.
There is a lot of rivalry between street gangs, which creates a lot of violence and danger for the members.
Ponyboy witnesses these dangers many times, as he is part of the greaser gang, which is the enemy of the socs.

When we look at the narration of these conflicts between the gangs, we can see that Ponyboy does not feel represented by either side of the conflict, for this reason, he narrates the events in a more intimate way, reinforcing the sense of displacement he feels.

While Ponyboy doesn't feel like he belongs to any of these gangs, his brothers are very loyal to the greaser gang. In that case, if they narrated the conflicts, they would present a narrative with a strong bias towards how the greasers acted.
