Answer:
The writer said, "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."
Explanation:
1. <u>The writer said, 'I expect to be finished with this novel in a month.'</u>
This sentence is incorrect because it is using single quotation marks. Instead of single quotation marks, there should be double quotation marks since this is direct dialogue. If you were from England, this would be correct as they use single quotation marks to indicate dialogue.
2. <u>The writer said I expect to be finished with this novel in a month.</u>
This sentence is incorrect because it has no quotation marks to signify a quote, and there isn't a comma after the word "said" before the dialogue.
3. <u>The writer said, "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."</u>
This sentence is correct because it is correctly punctuated. The comma after the word "said" is in its correct spot, the double quotation marks are surrounding the dialogue, and the period is within the quotation marks.
4. <u>The writer said "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."</u>
This sentence is incorrect because there is no comma located after the word "said." A rule in English is to put a comma before introducing dialogue or material.
Line 50 and line 53 express the grandmother's awareness of the varied experiences of life in the city, as shown in option 1.
<h3>How is this variety expressed?</h3>
- The grandmother watches the people in the city.
- People do different activities.
- The grandmother sees that the city is dynamic and busy.
The narrator shows how the grandmother observes people doing completely different things, in the same urban environment. In this environment, people are walking, talking, waiting for buses, and getting into taxis, among others.
This is very different from the monotony of country life.
