Did you forget to say that this question is about "The Bass, The River, and Sheila Mant"

Answer:

The narrator's automatic actions move the plot because they show that Sheila is no more important than her fishing habit. This can create conflicts that will move the story.

Explanation:  

Although the narrator had pledged to take Sheila Mant to the dance, he didn't think twice before starting fishing halfway. Even if the narrator does this automatically, he shows how the habit of fishing this intrinsic in him, so much that it puts Sheila in second place in his priorities, since the fishing can make him late, or even that the boat tip over and he can't take you to the ball.

This moves the plot because it can be the source of several internal and external conflicts.

Which of the following is the strongest thesis for an argumentative research paper?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

C. Adding another traffic light will help ease traffic on Main Street.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

A. Sometimes the traffic on Main Street is so heavy that no cars can move.

B. Main Street is the busiest street in the city.

C. Adding another traffic light will help ease traffic on Main Street.

D. Main Street is always busy because of all the stores there.

Option C would be the best thesis for an argumentative research paper. In this example, option C is particularly good as a thesis because it does not simply state a fact. Instead, this option makes an argument that needs to be supported with evidence. The author will then have to provide his justification that explains why another traffic light would ease traffic on Main Street.

Read this thesis statement: "Heart of Darkness plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?
Monica [59]

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Read this thesis statement: "<em>Heart of Darkness</em> plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?:

A) It is too narrow.

B) It is a plot summary.

C) It is too obvious.

D) It is not supported by the text.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A) It is too narrow.

Explanation:

As we know, this story is narrated by the protagonist, Charlie Marlow, who tells us of the journey he made going up a tropical river to locate a certain Kurtz, an elusive and legendary explorer who, according to his superiors, seems to have entrenched himself deep inside from the jungle. Soon the journey turns into a multi-troubled journey, with mystery and degradation growing as the legend of Lord Kurtz enlarges and takes shape.

The novel is based on a true story in the life of Conrad, who sailed up the Congo River as a ship captain in 1890 while working for the SGB company. There, amid the exploitation and genocide that the settlers carried out in the Congo Free State - the private preserve of King Leopold II of Belgium - Conrad was truly traumatized, wanting to relate the horror of his experience in a book in which, on the other hand, and despite the parallels between author and protagonist, no real places or characters are mentioned.

Just using the phrase<em> "plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo"</em> is too vague to describe the actual plot. Therefore, answer A is correct.
