Camille is taking notes on "A Simple Way to Create Suspense." Like the old cartoon of the big fish eating a smaller fish eating

a very small fish, you’ll find out the big answer after a string of smaller drip-drip-drip answers. The big answer is parceled out slowly and parsimoniously. I remember doing that in "Killing Floor,” my first novel featuring Jack Reacher, a drifter and ex-military policeman. Something weird is happening in a small Georgia town. O.K., great, but what? Well, it seems to be something to do with money. Fine, but what exactly? Well, it seems to be about getting hold of perfect blank paper for counterfeiting purposes. Wonderful, but where the heck are they getting it? Which will be most helpful as Camille re-reads her notes to find the central idea of this paragraph?

Answer: Big answer should come slowly.

The main idea of the passage is that, when writing a story and trying to create suspense, the "big answer" should come slowly. Option A is not particularly useful as the information can probably be obtained by just looking at the title of the text. Option B will not very clear helpful if Camille forgets the purpose of this metaphor. Finally, option D is relevant for the actual <em>Jack Reacher</em> novel, but not for the text on how to write suspense.

How did the dictatorship of Hitler, Mussolini and franco result to the outburst of the second World war ? discuss
Valentin [98]

Answer and Explanation:

Hitler, Mussoline and Franco stimulated the feeling of revanchism in their countries, making the citizens of each country see themselves as victims of other European nations that should be fought in the name of the honor of their homelands. With that, a great feeling of nationalism developed an imperialist position of the governments that, supported by the citizens, began to spread in smaller nations and to promote the suffering and the domination of other territories, creating the necessity that these territories defend themselves militarily, generating thus the second world war.

What does "Civil Disobedience" suggest about the public opinion of tax evasion in Thoreau’s time? Tax evasion was only a moderat
ExtremeBDS [4]
<span>The correct answer is the third option: if allowed to continue, tax evasion was a serious offense. Tax evasion means not paying your taxes, which, during Thoreau's time, resulted in going to jail. This punishment reflects the idea that tax evasion is a serious offense and that offenders should be treated as criminals. Despite these consequences, Thoreau used tax evasion as a form of civil disobedience. For example, he refused to pay his poll tax during the Mexican War as a way to protest the slavery that was still occurring in the United States. Due to his tax evasion, he went to jail until the poll tax was paid.</span>
