<span>While walking on the beach the author realized what is wrong with poetry. Collins begins to explain that one poet wrote a poem and people liked it so it made even more people become poets. Now EVERYONE thinks they are poets. He goes on to say that it will end when people realize that poets do not write anything of actual substance. Eventually the rise of poets will die down and they will hold their heads down low.</span>

Which phrase describes facts and details that an author states directly in a text? (1 point)
m_a_m_a [10]

The phrase that describes facts and details that an author states directly in a text is;

  • Explicit information

The facts and details that an author directly states in a text are explicit information. Explicit information is plainly described to the audience leaving no room for guessing or deductions.

Implicit pieces of information are those that require the audience to make guesses or interpretations based on the few pieces of information provided.

If, for example, the author states; <em>"That leader was a dictator who had no love for the people", </em>he has provided explicit information. We do not have to interpret the character of the leader.

It is revealed plainly in this piece of information.
