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.

Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the E) "... since they provide fascinating evidence about the creative processes in which this great Modernist engaged."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit on the answer, it can be added that the other options feature sentences that end with a preposition ("engaged in"), and although this is permissible in the English language, it is not the most formal option. In the example, a good way to correct it is to replace it by "in which." I would suggest changing the sentence so it reads "Although the author himself declared them unpublishable, the first appearance in print of 40 poems by T.S. Eliot is a significant event, since they provide fascinating evidence about the creative processes in which this great Modernist engaged."

Svetach [21]

Answer:

Ode to capitalism

The most polite ones that excuse me

But the weak, please disappear

And succumb to the power of capital

May the great ones grow even more

And that encourage competition, dishonesty and intolerance

I'm not interested in the hungry

the homeless and barefoot

If I am guaranteed abundance and abundance.

Explanation:

The poem above was made in eight verses and was inspired by the poetry presented by the beat generation.

The poem makes an ode to capitalism and evokes irresponsibility of this system with the most needy who are exploited in favor of those who are in a situation of advantage and privilege within our society and who basically do not care about anything as long as their sovereignty is guaranteed.
