Answer:

C). To provide comic relief

Explanation:

Comic relief is introduced in a literary work that offers humor that provides an emotional break to the readers from the intense and serious mood of the tragic plot. It is literary device that offers light-hearted elements to balance the seriousness by offering comic and funny elements. This excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet" exemplifies the author's purpose to provide comic relief to the audience. In this scene, the nurse invokes humor through her ridiculous outlooks and bawdiness. The 'sword' in this scene is added humorously with a comic element. Thus, the purpose of this dialogue is to provide comic relief to the readers.

Which best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt?
vova2212 [387]

I have found this question online, and it is about the short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," by Mark Twain. The excerpt is long for me to post here, but it begins with the story told by Simon Wheeler, one of the characters.

Answer:

The option that best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt is:

A. with the use of dialect.

Explanation:

When it comes to literature, dialect is related to how the author portrays the characters' speech. Many authors choose to write words with an uncommon spelling just to show that that is the way the character pronounces them. For instance, in books by Zora Neale Hurston, what should be "I" was spelled as "Ah" to emphasize pronunciation.

<u>The same happens in this short story by Mark Twain. The excerpt we are analyzing here uses dialect to reveal more about the character. For example, Wheeler says "feller" instead of "fellow". Twain wants readers to know that Wheeler is a simple man, in contrast with the narrator of the story who is an educated man and who uses a very different (formal) dialect from Wheeler.</u>

I need help please. Which of the following is appropriate transition to fill in the blank on the passage #4?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

D

Work:

Sentence 2 and 3 go hand in hand by explaining sentence 1. Sentence 3 is explicitly telling you what is going to happen, so the transition for sentence 4, would have to be a continuation of what would need to happen for the turtle to snap.


I hope this helps!
