We can select the correct answer among the multiple-choices. The author doesn't insult the readers because there is not any valid evidence to prove it. The same applies to the second option. We don't know that the narrator is knowledgeable or not - we need extra information to confirm that. The excerpt is just one sentence and it is clearly defined that there is nothing complicated. The only correct and suitable option is the last one since the answer is closer to understand. The correct answer is D.

Which three excerpts would best be characterized as expository texts?
cluponka [151]

The excerpts that function and can be characterized more accurately as expository texts are the first three excerpts: Excerpt 1, Excerpt 2 and Excerpt 3. These excerpts are centered around the communication of knowledge, of information which the reader may not have. They are exposing these 'new' information with short and regular sentences that strive to be as clear as possible. It can be discussed if the Excerpt 5, taken from Charles Dickens' <em>Great Expectations</em>, is an expository text, seeing as it has a very nuanced description; but it would be more precise to consider that excerpt as a descriptive text, as a type of text related to narrative fiction.

What is one reason Heart of Darkness has been criticized as racist?
Cerrena [4.2K]

The reason Heart of Darkness has been criticized as racist is that A. The African characters all adopt English customs.

<h3>The reason for the criticism.</h3>

In the story, the whiteness of Europeans was said to stand for civilization, and the darkness of Africa was said to be shown as savagery. This reason made a lot of critics criticize the fact that Africans were not considered human.

Hence, we can see that the story visualized African culture as barbaric which was the greatest reason for critics considering the piece racist as the African characters all adopted the English customs.
