Answer:

<em>“in groves all around Basra grow the best dates in the world”</em>

Explanation:

Subjective perspective is the personal opinion of the writer is mentioned or used. In other words, the point of view that is based on the author or writer's personal opinion is known as subjective perspective.

From the given excerpt, Marco Polo expressed his opinion about the dates found along the<em> "groves all around Basra",</em> calling them <em>"the best dates in the world." </em>This is a subjective approach because the opinion is the author's personal belief and not everyone's.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.

The Second Inaugural Address of President Abraham Lincoln was held on March 4, 1865. He shared his project to heal the nation's wound and unite the United States that were divided by the Civil War.

Unfortunately, he was assassinated 40 years after his second inauguration address.

Allushta [10]

The answer is definitely:  "And so it piled up to the ceilings" since the author is using exaggeration as a literary technique to make the situation seem even worse than it is.

I hope this answer helps you :)!
