What is the meaning an essay

English
1 answer:
Irina-Kira [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

An essay is, generally, a piece of writing that gives the author's own argument, but the definition is vague, overlapping with those of a letter, a paper, an article, a pamphlet, and a short story. Essays have traditionally been sub-classified as formal and informal. Formal essays are characterized by "serious purpose, dignity, logical organization, length," whereas the informal essay is characterized by "the personal element (self-revelation, individual tastes and experiences, confidential manner), humor, graceful style, rambling structure, unconventionality or novelty of theme," etc.

What choice does Welles make that causes the radio broadcast to feel like it
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

I believe the choice Welles makes that causes the radio broadcast to feel like it is happening live is:

D. He changes the verbs to present tense.

Explanation:

In 1938, future filmmaker Orson Welles broadcast a special Halloween episode on radio featuring an adaptation of the novel War of the Worlds, by H. G. Wells. The novel narrates a fictional invasion on Earth by Martians.

<u>Welles made it seem as if the bits of the novel he was reading were actually news bulletins, interrupting the normal broadcast of music now and then with new details concerning an invasion. To make it sound more realistic, as if the events are happening live, he narrates them using the present tense. The excerpt below belongs to a transcription of the broadcast. Pay attention to the verbs:</u>

<em> Ladies and gentlemen, we</em><em> interrupt</em><em> our program of dance music to bring  you a special bulletin from the Intercontinental Radio News. At twenty minutes before eight,  central time, Professor Farrell of the Mount Jennings Observatory, Chicago, Illinois, </em><em>reports </em><em> observing several explosions of incandescent gas, occurring at regular intervals on the planet  Mars. The spectroscope</em><em> indicates</em><em> the gas to be hydrogen and moving towards the earth with  enormous velocity. Professor Pierson of the Observatory at Princeton confirms Farrell's  observation, and </em><em>describes</em><em> the phenomenon as  "like a jet of blue flame shot from a gun".</em>

<u>By using the present tense, the narrator conveys a sense of immediacy, as if the events are taking place in real time.</u>
