A writer might choose to reflect on a person or event in a poem rather than in an essay or report because _____.
Lena [83]

Answer: Choice C)

He wishes for the reader to have an emotional response to the people or events.

===================================================

Explanation:

  • Choice A is false because the events or people are real.
  • Choice B is true (the people and events are real), but it's not the reason why the writer would go for a poem. The writer could go for an essay if all they wanted to do was talk about the person or event.
  • Choice C is true and it's the answer. Poems provide an emotional response of some kind which allows people to connect better. This in turn allows people to remember the poem better, or remember the person/events better.
  • Choice D is false because choice A is false.

Why should you use sources when writing a composition
Rasek [7]

Whenever you use other writers' ideas, however, you must acknowledge your sources. Doing so allows you to distinguish between your ideas and those of others; it directs your readers to relevant sources; and it allows you to give credit where credit is due.  It is important to properly reference and cite your sources to avoid plagiarism and to give credit for original ideas.

Putting source material in your own words shows readers that you have a true understanding of that material. Also, to restate in your own words the full meaning of a phrase or passage helps readers understand difficult, complex, jargon-riddled or ambiguous passages.

Scout fought Walter Cunningham because *
kiruha [24]

Answer: Scout fought Walter Cunningham because she blamed him for being punished on the first day of school.

Explanation:

Jean Louse Finch, known under the nickname "Scout", is a young girl, and a character from Harper Lee's novel, <em>To Kill a Mockingbird</em>.

At the beginning of <em>Chapter 3</em>, it is the first day of school, and the teacher criticizes Scout's father for teaching her how to read. Scout is upset by the teacher's criticism, but the situation becomes even worse later, when the teacher offers Walter Cunningham money for lunch. Scout, aware of the financial situation of the Cunningham family, explains to the teacher that Walter never borrows money, because he cannot pay back. As a result of Scout's behavior (which the teacher considers inappropriate), Scout is punished and her hand is smacked. Scout, clearly angry and frustrated, blames Walter for her bad day, and decides to "rub his nose in the dirt."
