Is what happened to Miss Strangeworth justified?

English
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]3 years ago
3 0
In Shirley Jackson’s “Possibility of Evil,” Miss Strangeworth feels justified in sending the letters to the townspeople because she believes that it is her work to keep the town “clean and sweet.” She views the town as “her town” and the people as “her people,” so it is her duty to know everyone else’s problems, whether real or imagined. It is also her duty to warn people of possible problems that may come their way.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

What key detail should be added to strengthen the student’s paraphrasing of this excerpt?  

A) Dulichium, Same, and Zacynthus are all visible to Ithaca.

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

C) The islands surrounding Ithaca lie to the east and the south.

D) Ithaca lies under Mount Neion and to the northwest.

Answer:

The detail that should be added to strengthen the paraphrasing is:

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Explanation:

A paraphrase consists of rewording something that was said by someone else. That is, we say the exact same thing but with different words. Thus,<u> to strengthen the student's paraphrase in this case, we must look for the idea that is missing.</u>

<u>In the original excerpt, Odysseus talks of Ithaca's geographic location, the fact that it is a good place "for a boy's training", and the fact that the island is a place he loves:</u>

<em>I shall not see on earth a place more dear.</em>

<u>However, the student's paraphrase has left out this last idea. To make it more complete, we should add that Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.</u>
